Hi Johnj,
PLEASE TAKE MY ADVICE ON THIS POINT.

Switching from 60mg citalopram to 30mg lexapro has caused me a month of agony.

Whatever you do, start low on lexapro and work up until you find the right dose.

DO NOT ASSUME THAT YOU TAKE HALF OF YOU CITALOPRAM DOSE.

My doctor has done this and its caused me to be really ill the last few weeks. I am in the process still of adjusting to 15mg lexapro (still not sure if its the right dose), and I changed dose 9 days ago and Im still getting "electric shocks" in the brain as I get used to the new dose.

BE CAREFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck
