If i'm taking lexapro (escitalopram) and i stop suddenly, can i drink?

Antidepressants: Stay in your system after you stop them. You should never stop them suddenly, since they need to be tapered off. Alcohol ; antidepressants don't mix, so don't play with your health, .

No: This is an extremely dangerous situation for a couple of reasons. Firstly your brain has become dependent upon the serotonin in the synapses. If you suddenly stop the medication you will quite possibly immediately lose the effect of the medication and your brain will have a major adjustments to make. Meanwhile when you add in the alcohol, profound suicidal ideation and depression could ensue. I have seen this happen before and it is simply not worth the risk. Please do not attempt this. Discuss this further with your psychiatrist.
