In reply to Lexapro! What do you think of it? Need support, posted by deepdarkhole on March 29, 2004, at 12:42:37
I started on 20 mg about 17 months a go. I now take 30 mg. It works great for me. Like any other antidepressant, it very well may poop out at your current dose. The key is to recognize the poop out and to not be afraid to raise the dose.
Too many people give up on a drug when all that is needed is a dose increase.
Lexapro is the only AD that I take. The only other drugs I take are for blood pressure and cholesterol. I don't think that I have any side effects from the Lexapro at the present time. Earlier on, I had day time tiredness. When I first started, I had jitteriness for a few weeks.
