In reply to Pharmrep: A Week On Lexapro..., posted by Alice Anne on October 3, 2002, at 12:38:59
> Hello Pharmrep, I've managed a week now at 10 mgs. Lexapro. I started at 2.5 for a week and then went to 5 for a few days. Most of the side effects (queasiness, muscle tension-- although I'm still a little spacey feeling) are dissipating, but my depression is not. My question for you is when do the anti-depressant, anxiety effects "usually" kick in? Thanks for the info.
** 1-2 wks is the response time for most, but that time starts with the 10mg...so you have 1 wk it sounds like...even then, a fair trial would be 1 month. hang in there and keep us posted.
