I took Lexapro for about 6 months back in 2005 and I remember feeling a little rough the first week. I would think it will go away for you, but no sense in you feeling cruddy for a long time...I'd give it a week or two for the side effects to lessen before talking to your doctor maybe? If it continues I'm sure they could find something better for you
I took it for 6 weeks....beginning July 13th of this year....gained 12 pounds....so be careful of that. I just switched to Cymbalta and am nauseaous since I started taking it a week ago.
