This should go away in a few days. I had that with Celexa which is similar to Lexapro. It didn't last for more than a couple of days. I'd say give it 4 days. If you can't take it, call the doc, otherwise, just stick it out. Keep me posted on how you are doing on it.
I have been thinking of switching.

I have been on Lexapro for 3 weeks and 5 days now. I had terrible s/e's the first 3-4 days, but they went away. I love Lexapro now and it's working great for me. Try to stick it out! Give it at least a week or so. It's really worth it! Good luck!

Thank you all for the advice im gonna try and stick with it and see what happens, I was also put on some sleeping pills and thinking I was getting dizzy from that but now I know its the lexapro. im hoping this works for me cause my depression is very bad and actually I found when I first started this Lexapro my depression was even worse the first couple days but that no longer is the fact, I found that this is making me kinda mellow which is good for me cause im always Ms. Speedy at everything I do and im kinda feeling a little relaxed.
I will keep everyone informed on my progress with this med. And Thank you again for the feedback!Corrina
