Who qualifies for Escitalopram

Escitalopram is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) commonly prescribed for depression and various anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). When reviewing your case, the EU-licensed doctor looks for a clear diagnosis of one of these conditions, your medical history, current medications, and any contraindications. They assess if Escitalopram is safe and appropriate for your specific health profile.

What Escitalopram actually does (and doesn't do)

Escitalopram works by increasing serotonin levels in your brain. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that helps regulate mood, sleep, appetite, and other functions. By inhibiting its reuptake, Escitalopram improves communication between brain cells, which can alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety. It doesn't provide an instant cure; it typically takes several weeks of consistent use to experience the full therapeutic benefits. It's a tool to help manage symptoms, not a quick fix for underlying issues.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Escitalopram can have side effects. Common ones include nausea, dry mouth, insomnia, drowsiness, increased sweating, and sexual dysfunction. These are usually mild and often improve as your body adjusts. However, if you experience severe or persistent side effects, or red flags like increased anxiety, agitation, panic attacks, or thoughts of self-harm, contact your doctor immediately. Do not stop taking Escitalopram abruptly without medical advice, as this can lead to withdrawal symptoms.
