I am amazed at all the threads on Lexapro. Thank goodness for this forum. My husband's back dr. just gave him a prescription for Lexapro a few months ago and I will quote here, the dr said, "I think it should be in the drinking water, it's great!". My husband never got the prescription filled and I am thankful. Gee whiz, don't any doctors do any research before they hand out scripts? I know it works for a lot of people, but what about when you have to quit taking it? Brain zaps??? That sounds terrible!

My Dr. gave me some Lexapro samples and had me break them in halves and take one a day. I was taking them for 3 and a half weeks when I started reading all sorts of things on Drugs.com about Lexapro so I stopped taking them. Tuesday was my last day, Wednesday I had a headache and nauseas all day long. When I woke up today, I did not have the headache but I am a bit nauseas. So, I don't know if I was taking the Lexapro long enough for them to cause any withdrawals, like the headache and nausea. What do you think? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Audra.
