In reply to RE Lexapro and quick poop out?, posted by banga on February 21, 2005, at 7:38:31
> I am wondering--do other people find that Lexapro poops out pretty quickly? It seems to be the case for me, and I remember at least one or two other posters say that.
I think any SSRI drug has the potential to poop-out. You can:
1. Increase the dosage
2. Give it more time. Antidepressant responses can be episodic and not smooth in the beginning.
3. Switch to a different drug.
4. Add another drug as an adjunct. Wellbutrin or Remeron would be good choices. Even low-dose lithium.
