Hello,
Hope it's ok to post this question. I've recently been prescribed Lexapro for post natal depression and anxiety (my lo is 16 months but battling this for a while now) - I've started off on 5mg for the first week then to increase to 10mg and see how things go. My gp said there shouldn't be any side effects but obviously to let him know if my mental state worsens. I've only been on it 4 days - I'm having horrendous nausea and gastro issues- has anyone else had this? Just wondering if it's common and if I should stick it out or go back to him. Mods please let me know if we can post questions like this. Not looking for medical advice, just people's experience with this medication - thanks
