I don't have anything negative to say about escitalopram at all (it helps me, no drawbacks for me) but I do want to point out that 20mg is not the recommended starting dose.
- aidepast 4y agoMy insurance potentially would not cover 10mg, so I'd split the 20mg tablets to 10mg per day for the first week, I suppose. SSRIs don't seem to treat OCD at low doses, so they want me to take 20mg from the beginning.
- kdtop 4y agoIf someone is very nervous about the Rx, they can be started at 5 mg to minimize potential side effects.
