I am currently taking 100 mg of Lexapro daily and have been at this level for approximately the last 6 months. I started at 20 mg and titrated up to 100 mg over several months. I suffer from OCD and have always required large dosages of medication in order to feel an effect. My doctor also has a couple of other patients on 100 mg and several others on 60 and 80 mg. It works fairly well for me and has relatively no side effects (occasional drowsiness). As my doctor says, everyone's tolerance is different so the dosages between patients can vary greatly. Boy, it has been a long time since I have posted on this board!
