DIFFERENT CATEGORIES: This is confusing. Allegra is an allergy medication and Lexapro (escitalopram) is an antidepressant medication. Yes they are both effective for what they are indicated for treating.

Yes: Both are effective for the conditions that each treat. I was wondering if you were asking about drug interactions. Per Drugs.Com drug interaction checker - there are no significant drug interactions between these medications.
