LEXAPRO
Anyone familiar with this anti-depressant? My friend just started taking it and she's doesn't seem like herself anymore. Just wondering if anyone had any dealings with this drug.
TIA

Re: LEXAPRO
DH takes it. He's really had no side effects from it, it helps him a lot.
Has your friend been back to her dr. since she started taking it? Is she aware of the change in her personality? Maybe the dosage is off?

Re: LEXAPRO
how long is she on it. It can take 4-6 weeks or even longer to kick in right. She may be feeling off if it's early.

I didn't want to say anything to her about it, because I didn't want to hurt her feelings or anything. I think she's been taking it for 2 weeks now.

Re: LEXAPRO
if things don't settle down after another few weeks, let her know that she's different but not in a good way and maybe she wants to talk to her doctor.
Not all these anti-depressant drugs are for everyone.

Someone I know took it for 3 weeks and had to stop. The side effects were just strange. He wasn't himself anymore... very overly emotional, talkatvie, etc

Re: LEXAPRO
I take Lexapro and it works wonders for me. It could be a problem with the dosage or it could just not be the antidepressant for him/her. That happens you just have to find the "drug" that works for you. Everyone is different when it comes to antidepressants
