By Shelby D Burns, Mon, September 05, 2011. Common antidepressant drugs like Prozac, Zoloft and Lexapro can be effective treatment options for obsessive compulsive disorders (OCD). Patients who take selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are twice as likely to get relief from their symptoms as those on placebo.
I have taken Lexapro for years. It does help with anxiety and depression but it also takes a while to build up in your system and is not a short-term panacea. It is also not strong enough for the acute anxiety you expereince getting off the opiates. You need Klonopin or Valium, something along those lines.
