In reply to Anyone else foggy on Lexapro?, posted by markmn on November 26, 2002, at 13:39:11
foggy is not the word for it; more like demented, but i'm on 30 mg, and it is worse in the morning (I take at night) and subsides 'somewhat' by the end of the day; i went through a similar thing with paxil and one day realized it was gone, but it was hard as hell riding it out, but i was very very glad i did; i can only hope the same thing happens with lexapro because it is very unsettling

> I've been on Lexapro(10mg)(10mg 5 in the morning and 5 with dinner)for about two and a half weeks now. Problem is that for about a 4 or 5 hour period in the middle of the day my brain is so foggy. My eyes feel super heavy and I don't feel with it. Is my dosage to high on the Lex, my doctor started me at 10, not the usual 5? Should I just take it at night? I've also been weening myself off of Paxil (15mg). I'm currently at 5mg. I know this could all be withdrawal, but have any of you had this s/e starting Lexapro?
