How it works — get your Lexapro prescription in 4 steps

4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU (including Sweden, Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Ireland, etc.) to collect your medication.

Who qualifies for Lexapro

Our EU-licensed doctors carefully review your medical history and current symptoms to determine if Lexapro (escitalopram) is appropriate for your condition. They look for a diagnosis of depression or generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). During the online consultation, you'll be asked about your symptoms, medical history, any other medications you are taking, and any contraindications that might make Lexapro unsuitable. The doctor will assess if Lexapro is the right choice for you, always prioritizing your safety and well-being.

What Lexapro actually does (and doesn't do)

Lexapro, or escitalopram, is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It works by increasing the levels of serotonin in your brain, a natural chemical that helps maintain mental balance. This can help improve mood and reduce feelings of anxiety. Many patients begin to feel symptomatic relief within a few weeks, though full effects may take longer. Lexapro is not an instant cure for depression or anxiety; rather, it’s a tool to help manage symptoms and improve your overall well-being over time. It should be used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan, potentially including therapy.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Lexapro can cause side effects. Common ones include nausea, insomnia, drowsiness, dry mouth, increased sweating, and sexual dysfunction. Most of these are mild and often improve as your body adjusts to the medication. However, if you experience severe or persistent side effects, or any concerning symptoms such like suicidal thoughts, seek immediate medical attention. It's crucial never to stop taking Lexapro abruptly without consulting a doctor, as this can lead to withdrawal symptoms. Your Hi-Doctor physician will discuss potential side effects and advise you on proper usage and when to seek further help.
