Default Lexapro

I have been taking Lexapro for over 2 years. The dosage has been steadily increased. Presently, I have been contracting infection after infection, stomach virus, bronchial infection, then a head cold/sinus infection. Along with these, I've had burning eyes and eye infections. Does this drug have the potential to lower ones resistance to infection?
