Who qualifies for Escitalopram

When you complete your medical questionnaire, the EU-licensed doctor looks for specific criteria to determine if Escitalopram is appropriate for your case. Escitalopram (commonly known as Cipralex or Lexapro) is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) primarily prescribed to treat Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). The doctor will assess your symptoms, medical history, current medications, and any pre-existing conditions that might contraindicate Escitalopram use. This ensures the treatment is safe and effective for you.

What Escitalopram actually does (and doesn't do)

Escitalopram works by increasing serotonin levels in your brain. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that plays a crucial role in regulating mood, sleep, and appetite. By preventing its reabsorption, Escitalopram helps to elevate mood and reduce anxiety symptoms. You typically start to feel the effects within 2-4 weeks, with full benefits often seen after 6-8 weeks of consistent use. It doesn't offer an instant cure, but rather helps to manage symptoms over time, improving your overall well-being. It is not a sedative or a tranquiliser, and its effects build gradually.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Escitalopram can have side effects. Common ones include nausea, dry mouth, insomnia, fatigue, and sexual dysfunction. These are usually mild and temporary, often subsiding within the first few weeks. More serious, but rare, side effects can include serotonin syndrome or an increased risk of suicidal thoughts, especially in young adults. It is crucial to inform your doctor if any side effects persist or worsen, or if you experience any concerning changes in mood or behavior. Never stop taking Escitalopram abruptly, as this can lead to withdrawal symptoms; always consult your doctor to taper off the medication safely.
