I seem to remember having some headaches when starting lex, or bumping up my dose. Same with other SSRI's. Sorry, I can't remember how long it lasted. Hope it ends soon for you.

I don't think that that is common with Lexapro. But why not take Tylenol or something like that maybe 30 minutes before taking Lexapro? The headache will probably stop occuring after a few weeks.
