Lexapro - Side Effects

[CJC]

Has anyone experienced ringing in your ears after starting Lexapro? If so, how long did it take to go away? Another side effect I'm having is red eyes. Anyone have a problem with that side effect?

Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks,
CJ

It says that ringing is a less common side effect.

I am currently taking 20mg of Paroxitine HCL (Paxil). I have tried 25mg CR, 20mg, and 40mg.

My side effects are delayed orgasm and lack of motivation.

The Paxil seems to cure my anxiety in low stress situations, but makes it worse in high-stress situations.

The side effects on the 40mg were more intense. In addition to the above listed side-effects, I got minor headaches and a much more sedated feeling with no additional benefits.

Ask me anything, I would love to help you with my experiences.

Im on 30 mgs of Lexapro and have been for a few years, I never had any side effects like that. but if you feel uncomfortable with it talk to your doc.

Good Luck
