The best way is to Speak the the Doctor Who prescribed it. There is a weening process with lexapro. Due to its half life (the amount of time it stays in your system after you've stopped taking it) you will have to slowly cut down your intake until you stop taking it comepletely.

Be sure to work with your Doctor on this as some side effects can occur if you stop taking it cold turkey.

As a side note if you have only been taking them for two months it may be a bit early to think about stopping the medication so soon. Even if you feel better stopping now could cause a relapse of symptoms.

Again speak to your Doctor first.

Is it safe to take zanax to help with withdrawal from Lexapro?

Xanax can be prescribed by your doctor alongside lexapro and taking them at the same time is okay. I am on Lexapro and take Xanex for occasional bouts of anxiety or panic attacks. However, weening yourself off Lexapro with Xanex is probably not the best idea. If you are having withdrawal from Lexapro you should probably go back on it.

How do you stop Wellbutrin XL and start Lexapro?

I recently switched from Cymbalta to Welbutrin. Cymbalta is similar to Lexapro. I started the transition by halving my Cymbalta dose while starting Welbutrin. This went on for a week, then I discontinued the Cymbalta and took only Welbutrin. Of course, the best answer to this question is to follow your doctor's orders.


Can you please tell me what is best taking Wellbutrin SR 100mg twice a day or combining Wellbutrin SR 100mgand Lexapro 10mg?

Wellbutrin and Lexapro work on different brain chemistries. Wellbutrin works on the dopamine while Lexapro works on Seratonin. Ten mg of Lexapro is a small dose. Wellbutrin can be taken twice a day to prolong its efficacy in conjunction with the Lexapro taken once. This is a standad therapy.


Does buspirone 10mg make you gain weight?

I have been taking Buspar for three months now. I have tried several other drugs for my anxiety and find Buspar to work the best so far, however, I have seen an increase in my weight. Nothing compared to Lexapro or Depacote, but I do find I have gained seven pounds in the three months. Buspar is different for everyone though, this is only what I have seen so far.


Does Alleve lessen the effects of Lexapro?

There is no direct interaction between Aleve (naproxen) and Lexapro (escitalopram) that is known to lessen the effects of Lexapro. However, using Aleve can potentially increase the risk of gastrointestinal side effects when taken with medications like Lexapro. It's always best to consult with a healthcare provider before combining medications to ensure safety and efficacy.
