Can i stop taking lexapro after 1 day of taking 10 mg? i started yesterday but i don't want to continue should i slowly stop or can i completely stop?

Taking this or any: SSRI or SSNRI for only one day won't set you up to have withdrawal symptoms. Consult with your prescribing MD if you have any further questions.
