A member asked:

I'm diabetic type 2 and since i started lexapro (escitalopram) 2 days ago my sugar has been really low which mine is always on the high side. is lexapro (escitalopram) to blame?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible, but rare.: On dec, 5, 2013: 33, 958 people reported to have side effects when taking lexapro (escitalopram). Among them, 228 people (0.67%) have hypoglycemia. That is 0.67% of all people who have reported side effects to the fda of to social media. That is not 0.67% of all people who take lexapro (escitalopram), the numbers of which must be in the millions by now. www.ehealthme.com/ds/lexapro (escitalopram)/hypoglycemia best wishes and happy new year!
