I am on 10 mg of lexapro. I was on 800 mg of Cimetidine as well for a long time. The lexapro works great. But apparently the Cimetidine increases the effectiveness of the lexapro, so I was getting more than my 10 mg worth.
Then it turns out that the Lexapro cimetidine combination was too hard on my kidneys. I stopped the cimetidine, but does that mean the effectivenes of the lexapro will go down?
I wish I had not started the folic acid to intensify the effect of the lexapro. (What can I tel you? I'm greedy to just feel happy.) Any other natural supplements that will intensify the effect of the lexapro?
I know I could increase the Lexapro but people seem to gain weight on more than 10 mg and I am scared of that.
Thanks for your help in advance.
