In reply to Lexapro Dose increase - mental fatigue, posted by vic80 on March 18, 2010, at 10:32:19
If it was a bitter taste then it is from Lunesta. I don't think Lunesta is causing your tiredness because at the evening it is out of your system. The symptoms your are describing are most likely from the Lexapro increase. Wait and see if it gets better and/or call your doc.
