A member asked:
Could you please tell me what drug would be causing the groggy feeling. 15mg lexapro (escitalopram) or 20mg amitrypiline for pain.thanks?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Amitriptyline: Amitriptyline is sometimes prescribed off -label to help with sleep. Chance is less with lexapro. However see that you take diazepam 8mg per day - that may be the culprit. Also remember that possible drug- drug interactions may contribute to your groggy feeling.
