It's a dose that is mostly used to start. 10mg is available to use but each doc to his own. PAxil can also start at 10mg to investigate the tolerance level and increased if no change after a few weeks. It is a rule of thumb not to add more then 40mg. 50mg in extreme cases but not recommend. It also depends on what you are being medicated for, there are a few uses for this drug.

30mg Lexapro why this dose?
The highest usual dose for lexapro is 20mg. So 30 will not help you. Sometimes a higher dose is used for OCD, but it probably won't help. Switch down to 20!
Can Paxil be crushed and ingested?
Yes, it can be crushed and ingested. I do this to decrease my dose. Now, another question is: Does it affect the efficacy of Paxil? I don't know. I ran into the problem of splitting, then quartering my Paxil. I wanted to split it further, and crushing it was the only immediately obvious solution.
Should you move up to 20mg if 10mg of lexapro does not help?
This should really be up to your doctor. If you've given it 2-3 months, I would think upping the dose would help you. I upped my dose at about 3 months, from 10mg to 20mg and eventually to 30mg, where I gained alot of weight. It helped me tremendously upping the dose, though.
