SSRIs
SSRI | Dosage equivalents
20 mg | Celexa (citalopram hydrobromide)
10 mg | Cipralex/Lexapro (escitalopram oxalate)
75 mg | Effexor (venlafaxine hydrochloride).
10 mg | Lexapro/Cipralex (escitalopram oxalate)
50 mg | Luvox (fluvoxamine maleate)
20 mg | Paxil (paroxetine hydrochloride)
20 mg | Prozac (fluoxetine hydrochloride)
50 mg | Zoloft (sertraline hydrochloride)
One study has shown that Celexa (citalopram hydrobromide) is the best intermediary drug when rotating SSRIs. Technically, Effexor (venlafaxine hydrochloride) is not an SSRI but rather a dual action SSRI/SNRI.
