I dunno man. What were you taking it for? Are you on anything right now? I read somewhere that Luvox is safer than a lot of other SSRIs, but I'm not a doc and Luvox carries its own set of problems.
If its depression...you have plenty of options. OCD...probably fewer options. Anxiety...lots of options. See where I'm going with this?
Could you lower the dose and augment? Some people can take an SSRI+Wellbutrin, SSRI+Remeron, SSRI+buspar, so on and so forth. I seem to recall reading that the cardio issues w/ escitalopram are dose related, so...I dunno...maybe try that?
Have you tried other SSRIs? Any problems? Successes? I mean, I'm not a doc, so I'm just asking what has worked, what you're treating, and what effects you need/want from your medication.
Good luck!
