Exactly. Somebody I know with scientific training and depression was offered Lexapro (escitalopram) to replace a citalopram script: "It works better for some people." She wasn't so depressed that she didn't explain the scam to her doc, who accepted the explanation and stopped prescribing the new version with a reduced concentration of the ineffective stereoisomer.

But this doc wasn't getting visits and kickbacks from Allergan.
