In reply to Lexapro and agitation or restlessness, posted by steve3211 on January 11, 2004, at 19:34:48
Steve-
Yes definitely, I and many others have experienced this...it subsides but it happens gradually, not all at once..Im in the middle of week 7 now and starting to feel that it is subsiding to the point where its no longer a constant mosquito in my ear..
> Hi Guys,
> Anyone experience restlessness or agitation on Lexapro? I am on my 3rd week at 5mg and I'lll have occasional bouts of what I think is agitation. I get very irratable, cannot sit still and feel hungry and don't want to eat. It is a rotten side effect, but only seems to last an hour or two. Today for most of the day felt almost as normal for a change and then got restless and agitated. Frustrating! Anyone else felt this side effect? It is making me worried about bumping up to 7.5 mg's. I am also taking 30mg restoril nightly for sleep which I intend to taper off.
> Thanks everyone-Steve
