• Getting use to Lexapro which dosing?
|
I just started taking Lexa pro on Tuesday. I was prescribed 10mg. The first day was rough, I felt like a real space cadet. So I cut the pill in half in, in hopes to getting my body adjusted to the medicine. It has been a few days, and I am wondering should I go ahead and try the full dosing? I just don't want to have the spacey feeling again.

• Can you get withdrawal symptoms from one dose of lexapro?
|
So I took my first 2.5mg dose of lexapro today and after doing some research on some of the horrible withdrawal experiences, I decided that I would rather not take the drug at all. I am seeing my doctor tomorrow but was just wondering if anyone on here has had experience with lexapro and if it is possible to get withdrawal from a single dose. Thanks for any help!

|
Is it okay to just increase your seratonin in a more natural way?
I heard that no one stays on Lexapro a lifetime because the seratonin eventually runs out.
What natural remedies work better than that? What worked for you?
I'm asking YOU what more natural remedies. I've heard taking tryptophan will help.

•Voting Question: What happens if I accidentally took double my dose of lexapro?
|
I am on 10mg of lexapro and I usually take my medicine in the morning but slept in today. When I woke up I went to work out. I dont remember if I took my medicine before I worked out or not but after I worked out I took a pill. Now I am worried that I took my medicine twice. What will happen if I did?

• How long should I wait before increasing my dose of Lexapro?
|
I've been on Lexapro for about 4 weeks and my anxiety became less intense in the first week. It was completely gone in the 2nd and 3rd week. I was very surprised and happy! Now that I'm' in the 4th week, I am feeling the anxiety again but it's still very mild which is an improvement. I am on 5mg a day and my doc says I can up it to 10 whenever I feel I need to.

|
I'm taking 20mg of Lexapro daily and if a miss a day if feel like I become irritatable and anxious(sort of how I felt before taking it). My pharm. says it doesn't work way but it definately seems that way. Has anyone else experienced this or is it "in my head"?

• How long do withdrawal symptoms last after stopping Lexapro?
|
I was on a 10mg dose of Lexapro for a year, and then stopped gradually by taking one every other day, then not at all. It's been almost 2 weeks since I stopped, and I don't feel too bad, but I frequently get "brain shocks." Anybody get these before? How long are they supposed to last?
