In reply to Lexapro - should I increase the dosage again?, posted by ncwcgrl99 on December 15, 2003, at 10:25:18
I am surprised to hear your doc thinks putting you on anti-anxiety meds (like benzodiazepines such as Klonopin) is a bad idea. Yeah, they may be addictive, but it is a pretty mild thing to be addicted to. I don't know if people wind up abusing these drugs typically. Does anyone know about this?
I would be cautious about going up to 40 mg Lex because it sounds like it is already making you really tired at 30 mg. I have been on 20 mg Lex and recently added Wellbutrin XL, which has helped, though it might make you more anxious. It might be worth considering though.
All the best,
