This is too large a dose to start on. The manufacturer suggests starting at 5 to 10 mg, and not increase above 10mg for at least one week. 20 is the usual maximum dose. However, your doctor may advise 40 milligrams in some circumstances.

Can you mix ecstasy with Lexapro if you do not take Lexapro dose that day?
No you can't... both lexapro and ecstasy are dealing with the same material in your brain - seratonin. ecstasy brings it levels very high, while lexapro keeps it in a controlled level, so the ecstasy just won't work. not taking lexapro that day is meaningless, as the drug is not effective the same day, it keeps a certain level in your blood (which is why it takes 2 weeks after starting taking lexapro to really feel the effects)

Can smoking marijuana cause side effects while taking lexapro and focalin xr?
I am on 20mg or Focalin XR a day and I have been an avid marijuana smoker and activist for a long time. I can only speak from experience with higher quality bud (i.e. - "chronic" or if I'm lucky, some from cannabis clubs), but it doesn't cause any side effects that I've noticed. I've also been on Lexapro and many different drugs in that family and I've never noticed anything...and I smoke multiple times a day...usually.
Can you drink alcohol while taking chloroquine?
I have been on Lexapro for 6 months (10mg). I have drank alcohol on Lexapro and usually doesn't effect me until the day after and the day after that. Night sweats, insomnia and rapid fire (out of control heart beat) are the worst part. Less drastic was the anxiety that returned which is why i was taking Lexapro in the first place. I am now getting off the drug. The sexual side effects are the main reason I am stopping this drug. I had rather have anxiety then be a sexual gimp.
