You can take tab Exapro, Citanew, morcet. All these are best brands.
the question is why u take antidepressant for so long??ur depression isn't resolve yet?
it's been long you have been taking antidepressants,it should be atleast tapered down till now discuss it with your registered psychiatrist
you need a re evaluation of your symptoms, because antidepressants should be taken for 6-9 months ,once symptoms improve
Why u are taking the singlr antidepressant for 4 yrs almost...
You shud have taper off the drug if u are well or titrate the dose if u are not well.
Need proper chk up dear.
