Lexapro Anxiety Drug Pricing
|
Lexapro is an antidepressant that is the newest member of the family of medications known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Lexapro was developed by isolating a part of the Celexa (citalopram HBr) molecule, known as an isomer. As a result, Lexapro is able to provide effective and well-tolerated therapy for depressed patients.
Take Lexapro exactly as directed by your doctor. If you do not understand these instructions, ask your pharmacist, nurse, or doctor to explain them to you. Take each dose with a full glass (8 ounces) of water. To ensure you get the correct dose, measure the liquid form of Lexapro with a dose-measuring spoon, cup, or dropper, not with a regular table spoon. If you do not have a dose-measuring device, ask your pharmacist where you can get one. Lexapro may be taken with or without food. Lexapro is usually taken once a day. Follow your doctor's instructions. Take the dose at the same time each day. Do not stop taking Lexapro without first talking to your doctor. It may take several weeks for you to start feeling better.
If you experience any of the following serious side effects, stop taking Lexapro and call your doctor immediately or seek emergency medical treatment: an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; closing of the throat; swelling of the lips, tongue, or face; or hives); an irregular heartbeat or pulse; low blood pressure (dizziness, weakness); high blood pressure (severe headache, blurred vision); or chills or fever. If you experience any of the following less serious side effects, continue taking Lexapro and talk to your doctor: headache, tremor, nervousness, or anxiety; nausea, diarrhea, dry mouth, or changes in appetite or weight; sleepiness or insomnia; or decreased sex drive, impotence, or difficulty having an orgasm. Side effects other than those listed here may also occur. Talk to your doctor about any side effect that seems unusual or that is especially bothersome.
