I imagine it all depends on the person....everyone is different...some people need higher doses than others to have a reaction.
if you feel that it isn't doing what it suggested then speak to your doctor and talk about other options or increasing the dosage.

Can you take Lexapro and coumadin?
My doctor prescribed 10 mg of Lexapro to me while I was taking 4mg of Coumadin daily. Not sure if it makes a difference but I am only on Coumadin for another 3 months and have been taking Lexapro for about a month. So I would imagine it is safe as long as you continue to have your INR levels monitored. But you may want to check with your dr especially if you need to be on Coumadin long-term or even forever in addition to the Lexapro.
Taking 20 mg of lexapro for 2 years but having fatigue dr recommended switching from lexapro to 30 mg of Cymbalta for 2 weeks and then 60 mg has anyone switched and what was your experience?

What are effects by taking Vicodin and Lexapro?

How do you know if Lexapro is not working?
I Have been taking lexapro for more than 12 months and feel that it is no longer working - I began to resume feelings of depression and anxiety despite taking my daily dose - I have since been advised to increase the dose from 10 mg to 20 mg - I wonder after the previous results what will occur once i become immune to the 20mg dose as seemed to occur with the 10 mg dose? I have heard of people on 40 mg? Then again I have heard of people on an endless cyle & search for 'the perfect drug' I think I may stop these meds all together an try the natural approach. Goodluck fellow users!
Are there side effects to Lexapro and Concerta together?
I have been on this combination for a year now (10 mg Lexapro, which I just upped to 20 mg) and 36 mg of Concerta. I can't see any large side effects to taking both together, except perhaps excess sweating. Take Concerta in the morning only, especially if you have trouble falling asleep at night.
