While Phenelzine is a MAOI traditionally prescribed for depression, several other medications from different classes are now more commonly used due to a more favorable side effect profile, fewer dietary restrictions, and better overall tolerability.
These alternatives vary in how they work, how long they last, and what conditions they’re best suited to treat:
Medication | Class | Common Uses | Oral Availability |
Lexapro (Escitalopram) | Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor (SSRI) | Depression, Generalized Anxiety Disorder | Yes |
Zoloft (sertraline) | SSRI | Depression, OCD, PTSD, Panic Disorder, PMDD, Social anxiety disorder | Yes |
Rexulti (brexpiprazole) | Second generation Atypical Antipsychotic | Adjunctive for Depression, Agitation associated with dementia, Schizophrenia | Yes |
Seroquel (quetiapine) | Second generation Atypical Antipsychotic | Bipolar Disorder, Depression (adjunct), Schizophrenia | Yes |
Prozac (fluoxetine) | SSRI | Depression, OCD, Bulimia, Panic Disorder, PMDD | Yes |
Cymbalta (duloxetine) | Serotonin-Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitor (SNRI) | Depression, Anxiety, Chronic Pain, Fibromyalgia, Neuropathic pain | Yes |
Wellbutrin (bupropion) | Norepinephrine-Dopamine Reuptake Inhibitor (NDRI) | Depression, Seasonal Affective Disorder, Smoking Cessation | Yes |
Celexa (citalopram) | SSRI | Depression | Yes |
Unlike Phenelzine, most of these medications are first-line or adjunctive treatments with fewer dietary limitations and milder side effect profiles. The choice depends on your symptoms, medical history, and how your body responds. SSRIs like Lexapro and Zoloft are often considered starting points for depression and anxiety, while agents like Rexulti or Seroquel may be added when single-drug treatment isn’t enough.
If you’re considering switching from phenelzine or starting treatment for depression or anxiety, a licensed provider can help you choose the safest, most effective option for your needs, all from the comfort of home.
