Exclamation why luvox so much
Hello

From what ive been reading it seems luvox is the NUMBEr 1 SSRI that is perscripted for OCD and obessions. What is it about this drug that makes it better then the other SSRI's? like prozac or paxil?

Re: why luvox so much
My Dr. likes it b/c I guess it's more of an anti-obesssional drug than the others. However, he told me that in other countries like England and Canada, that it's used a lot more for depression.
