Hi,
well I have news for you about this matter.

I took JUST 10MG this morning instead of the 30MG which has been making me feel really ill. I feel MUCH BETTER...

I dont want to drop from 30 to 15mg in one go, so Im going to move to 20mg as from tomorrow and see how I feel.

But I think I am proof that the 2:1 ratio is not true.

On a couple of occasions, I took a double dose of my 60mg of citalopram (forgot I had taken it, and took it again if you understand). On the two occasions I have made this error, I was really ill both days. Red face, really trembly, jitters, etc etc..

Well, the feeling Ive been getting the last two weeks when taking 30MG lexapro (half my 60mg dose of citalopram) was the same as when I doubled my citalopram dose. I just feel like a fool that I didnt realise earlier that I was on too high a dose of lexapro. I just thought my anxiety had come back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I will keep you posted on how I get on on 20mg (which if the 4:1 ratio is true), will still be too high and I should move to 15mg... but I want to play it safe.

Cheers
