In reply to lexapro side effects, posted by marlar on November 13, 2003, at 14:26:01
> I was just started on Lexapro this week: 5 mg. I have had some side effects, nausea and "fogginess" in my head. How long do these SEs last and when will I begin to feel better? I have anxiety and was unable to tolerate Paxil. Is 5 mg an appropriate dosage to be effective for my symptoms? I am only 5ft and weight 100#.
For me s/e's gone by week 4, did not feel *better* until week 9. Started at 5mg, went to 10mg week 5, went to 20mg at 5th month. Hang in there and hopefully you too will get good results!~~~8|8
