> I have been taking Lexapro 20mg/day for 6 months. YES - I have gained about 7 pounds of ugly fat on my 6' frame (male - 40yr old - athletic) I work out regularly, and I cannot get this weight off no matter what I do - diet and tons of cardio have done nothing. I've always been very fit. I suspect this drug slows your metabolism significantly in some people. I also don't like the lack of sex drive I am experiencing. I am requesting my psychiatrist switch me off this drug. HATE IT!


Hi there, if you quit the lexapro ween yourself off slowly and stop at 10mg for awhile and see if that helps!!!!!! TAKE CARE!!!!!!!
