I've been taking Lexapro10mg for 3 weeks. The ringing in my ears is making me crazy. It's all I focus on now. Today was my last dose, please tell me this goes away. Talk about creating anxiety. Can anyone give me some positive feedback?

Hi, Sherole! Tinnitus is an uncommon side effect of Lexapro (and other antidepressants) that usually resolves within just a few days to a week or two.
Increased anxiety is a very common side effect that should also resolve quickly.
But because it's been three weeks already you should probably notify your doctor and get her/his professional advice on this.
