Don't hold your breath on this. All of these drugs seemed to get delayed or otherwise at the last minute. A few of the recent debacles are:Reboxetine - it has basically fallen into a black hole.
Selegeline patch - FDA denied.
Duloxetine - was supposed to be out by now, but has been FDA delayed for at least a year.
And now it looks like Lexapro has been delayed. Do not at all be suprised if it turns out that you don't see Lexapro until next year, or the year after that... or maybe never.
