In reply to lexapro and start up SEs, posted by maddy4 on October 4, 2005, at 10:13:10
hi maddy,
I'm sorry you're struggling - I hope it improves soon! For me, I really didn't have any start-up SE's from Lex, and I jumped right into 20 mg/day. I've heard about SE's and I'm sympathetic to those who have them during start up. I think it usually takes 2-3 weeks to stabilize on the drug, so hopefully you can continue taking the Xanax until the Lex starts working fully without SE's! I took Xanax for 2-3 weeks until the Lex started working, and then I stopped. For me, the Lex really helped my anxiety. I know not all drugs work the same for everybody, but i hope it works for you too!good luck! :)
