I have been taking 10 mg of Lexapro for three weeks now and I am still experiencing bad side effects, muscle tension,burning skin and the diareha finally stopped today. has anyone ever experience mouth ulcers from Lexapro, because I got them in the inside part of the corner of my lips.

I took lexapro for about 2 weeks before I decided it wasnt worth it.  Although It did help with depression I kept getting weird cist like bumps only where my beard grew. I think they were like in grown hairs or something.  I know that mouth ulcers hurt real bad. Have you been drinking anything with a lot of acid in it?  I know when I havnt had orange juice for a while and then I start drinking it again I get those little bastards all the time in my mouth.  Try swishing with warm salt water just around in your mouth every day and they go away prety quick.  They also have kanker sore ointment at most cvs or wallgreens.  Also, I am really unsure of your personal feelings and why you take lexapro but, you should look into taking adderall if you havnt tried it before.  I am a college student and  I take one every time I have to study and when I do, I have no depression or anxiety whatsoever.  The only side effect I ever get from adderall is that I  feel really motivated, sometimes I feel hyper but in a very productive way, and sometimes there are sexual side effects that for me, makes my mind aroused but my mind and my friend cant get on the same page. (sorry for the discription)  That is why I only take them when I need to study.  Didnt mean to question your judgement of taking lexapro I just thought I would give you some advice as to what has worked for me.  Hope you get rid of those ulcers.
