In reply to Re-starting lexapro. Any thoughts?, posted by h on February 3, 2006, at 9:26:31

The first thought when i hear (es)citalopram is heavy nausea. Apart from that the usual sexual side effects and sometimes a bit of somnolence. I think Lexapro is the most selective in the SSRI group for the serotonin receptors. I think this is what could make it good as a first line medication. But then again that might also make it ineffective if the imbalance is not only/mainly in the serotonin system.
