In reply to Sexual Side-Effects, posted by Emmeline on November 5, 2002, at 23:55:53
Hi there! I have tried almost every ssri known to man, and terrible side effects like nausea, diarrhea, increased anxiety(by the way-I have panic disorder,gad, and depression), my pupils were dilated, couldn't sleep etc, and so far the lexapro-which I've been on for a week hasnt caused me any bad side effects at all really! Actually, as far as the sex drive issue is concerned, mine has gotten way better since taking the lexapro. Before the lexapro, and while I was on other med's my sex drive was GONE!!! But now, I feel a lot better. My anxiety has gotten a lot better too. I'm still waiting to see what it does for the depression, but in all honesty, overall, I have to say so far so good! By the way-I'm 26 so I know how you feel!
