Side-effects to Lexapro
I take 20 mg Lexapro per day for depression. I use to be on 150 mg. Effexor XR. However, Effexor stopped working for me so my doctor switched me to Lexapro. I don't think it's working as well for my depression and I believe I'm having severe night sweats from it. I also have lots of limb pain that has worsens since being on Lexapro. I can't seem to find a "straight" answer to if any of these side-effects are related to taking Lexapro. I'd appreciate a response from someone who knows the answer to this question.
Thanks!
Laura
Laura,
It's your doctors JOB to answer these questions. If he can't or won't, it's time for a new doctor.
Here's some Lexapro info: http://www.healthcentral.com/anxiety/find-drug-1094-150.html
