Mammo gives you great advice. I've been on Lexapro for 4 weeks now and at first it made me very tired so I took it at night, still do. I also felt dizzy and nauseous the first week or so but that's almost completely gone. My breathing has gotten much better which is great! Try to hang in there and give this med a chance. Like Mammo said, call your Dr just to be safe and ask about the side effects your having. Take care. Remar
People can have some difficulties while their bodies are adjusting to the medication, but call your prescribing doctor and let him know how you are feeling with this. Always work closely with him on your meds. Some of this is your anxiety, as the Lexapro hasn't had enough time to reach a therapeutic level in your system to help with this. Keep us posted.
