I noticed a change with 10 mg. within a couple of days. The full effect seems to be reached at about 4 weeks. So I'd say it starts to work right away. If you are very anxious or depressed you may not notice it has started because you still feel bad at times. Dont give up too soon. God Bless You

Are there any long-term side-effects of using Lexapro for a short while?

I don't know about "short while", as I'm not sure how long you mean. A few months? A few years? How long is "short" vs. "long" to you? I took Lexapro for about 3 years straight. Currently, 4-5 years after quitting Lexapro, my formerly normal libido has NOT returned to what I recall as a "normal" level. In fact, it's hardly there at all. I don't know if this is due to general life stress or Lexapro, but I had plenty of the same stress BEFORE I went on Lexapro, so I'm suspecting the drug had/still has something to do with it. This drug is still fairly "new" to market, and little is known about long term side effects - the manufacturers and FDA don't usually research the side effects exhaustively before approving a new drug.


If you have missed 4 doses of Lexapro--should you just start taking them again or quit?

You should take your next dose as soon as possible. If you have been on Lexapro for a long period of time then the withdrawl effects can be unpleasant, as in causeing anxiety and/or depression in a way worse than before. If you do not like lexapro you should notify your doctor and come off of it slowly.
