Hi. I have been taking Lexapro (10mg/day) for two weeks. I did drop to 5mgs/day for a couple of days, but then returned to 20mgs. I have also stopped taking Lamictal to see if it was playing any role in the sexual dysfunction that I have been experiencing since starting Lexapro.
HERE's The GOOD NEWS: For me, this is a terrific drug for alleviating depression. I really feel better than I have for a very long time!
HERE's the BAD NEWS: Sexual Dysfunction
So I am faced with the proverbial Hobsian's Choice. Sex or Depression.
Tomorrow I am going to cut back to 5mgs/day. I'll let you know what happens.
