In reply to 7 WEEKS LEXAPRO!!!!!!!!!!!, posted by blkvettes on April 2, 2003, at 16:29:45

I was told that Lexapro only comes in 10mg and higher...how were you taking 7.5mg? I switched 2 days ago from 30mgs of Celexa to 10mg of Lexapro. I feel like the correct amount should have been 5mg Lexapro due to some "adjustment" symptoms I am having. The 30 mgs of Celexa had worked wonderfully for me, however I had gained some unwanted weight. Comments on dosage? Thanks.

> Hi everyone, its been 7 weeks and no depression this week. I am still taking 7.5mg. I saw my shrink a few days ago and he wants me to start coming back every 3 months now. He also still insists I go up to 10mg in the next couple of weeks. Dont know if I will or not. I see things more clearly now. I still have my panic side to contend with. I am driving everyday but it is still some work instead of pleasure. I am having a slight balance problem when I walk. I guess due to leftover anxiety, it is not from the lex. I have had this since panic attacks started 6 months ago. Started walking alot and doing balance exercises to end this. So I wont go to big stores or any place that requires walking until this is better. I can take a few tests to determine if it is physical. But would rather not at this time due to the many times I have stayed in the hospital. I have gained a lot of weight that I lost and am getting close to my target weight. I am very satisfied with my progress on lex and hope it only gets better from here. If the balance problem goes away I will never complain again!!!!!! This is my last weekly update unless things get worse. But I will always answer posts on this board!!!! Everyone take care!!!!!
