Lexapro, an SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor), is primarily used to treat depression and anxiety. While it is not specifically approved for Tourette syndrome, some studies suggest that SSRIs may help manage associated symptoms like anxiety or obsessive-compulsive behaviors, which can co-occur with Tourette syndrome. However, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional for personalized treatment options, as responses to medications can vary.
