They are good medicines, to understand the subtypes of medication efficacy if you study neuroanatomy, neurophysiology and neuro chemistry and a little bit of neurpsychopharmacology then it would be easier to understand and comprehend. Good luck

I will not say that fluvoxamine is better than fluoxetine. However, research has shown that certain medicines or medicine combinations have a particularly good response with certain conditions. You can safely continue with these medicines as prescribed.
