Lexapro

Lexapro is an anti-depressant from the family of drugs known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors or SSRIs. Just like diabetes, heart disease, or asthma, depression is a real medical condition. It is believed to be caused by an imbalance of certain chemicals in the brain that affect mood. Symptoms vary and may include persistent sad mood, fatigue, or lack of pleasure. The good news is that LEXAPRO is an effective, well-tolerated therapy that can help improve symptoms of depression. It helps to restore the brain's chemical balance by increasing the supply of a substance in the brain called serotonin. Lexapro appears to relieve depression by increasing serotonin without affecting many of the other chemicals in the brain that influence mood.

LEXAPRO is well tolerated by most people. The most commonly reported side effects are nausea, insomnia, problems with ejaculation, drowsiness, increased sweating, and fatigue. Most of the side effects experienced by patients taking LEXAPRO are mild and go away with continued treatment, and usually do not cause patients to stop taking LEXAPRO.

Lexapro appears to work by increasing the available supply of serotonin. Here's how: - The chemical messenger serotonin is released from one nerve cell and passed to the next.

- In depression, too much serotonin is reabsorbed by the first nerve cell. This decreases the amount of serotonin available for the next nerve cell.

- Lexapro blocks the reabsorption of serotonin by the first nerve cell. This increases the amount of serotonin available for the next nerve cell.

- By correcting the imbalance of the supply of serotonin, LEXAPRO improves symptoms of depression.

Because LEXAPRO appears to relieve depression by increasing serotonin levels with minimal effect on many of the other chemicals in the brain, it may cause relatively few and mild side effects, which generally tend to go away with continued treatment.
