In reply to lexapro increases panic attacks?, posted by lanie on September 30, 2004, at 12:30:44
> Hi everyone, I am taking lexapro for panic attacks.I also take imipramine. I was on xanax but my doc changed me to klonopin. Well I was taking 10 mgs. of lexapro but still having a bit of panic, so she increased it to 15 mgs. It is now day 6 of 15 mgs. of lexapro. Feel more panic in my head. Bit agoraphobic. Klonopin has relaxed my body but doesn't seem to stop the panic so much in my head. Doc told me to wait 2 weeks to feel better. Has anyone else had this problem? Does the panic go away? I am so sick of it. Plus I have a headache from the lexapro. Appreciate any advise. Thanks
>I my case it increased my anxiety and that never resolved itself.
I found Celexa to be much more easy to take, with less side effects, then Lexapro myself.
Hope that helps.
