> So in a magazine, as well as some place on the net, I read that Zoloft was the most widely prescribed antidepressant of 2007.

> But here a psychobabble we don't see much of Zoloft. I wonder what's up with that?

> Did the drug company just do a fantastic job of getting all doctors to prescribe it, or is it the one that doctors really see success with? Hard to tell. I would have thought for sure that Lexapro or Effexor would have beat out Zoloft. But they didn't. And from all the Cymbalta ads I've seen and all the Duloxetine trivia posted all over doctor's offices, I'm surprised Lilly didn't come out on top.

> Anyway, Zoloft, I know you're out there. Why so scarce at pbabble?Zoloft is now generic. Drug companies like to push drugs still on patent. Zoloft is very good for one who needs an activating AD. Not as activating as prozac and also hits dopamine a bit.
