> I have been on Lexapro for about 5 weeks now I think. I recently was out in the sun for about 3 hours and found that I had a terrible sunburn. The sunburn is still around after one week, usually this only takes a couple days to turn to tan. The area is peeling but still red. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced oversensitivity to sun while on Lex.
