lexapro only week before period

Posted by jakesmom on August 11, 2004, at 19:01:04

I have just been prescribed lexapro for PMS and have been instructed to take 5 mg. for the 7 days before my period which is the time I seem to experience the most moodiness and irritability. Has anyone else received such a dosage schedule and what can I expect? I have been reading about how many of you don't feel the full effects of the medicine until having 3-4 weeks on it continually. It concerns me that I may experience more side effects only going one week per month to take the edge off of the PMS. Please advise!
