Escitalopram: Cipralex, Lexapro or escitalopram is a ssri antidepressant with anti anxiety properties. If you are experiencing anxiety, maybe you need to consult your physician for adjusting the dose, starting psychotherapy in combination, or adding a new agent to the regimen. The most important is documenting what is the source of the anxieties, and how they develop.. The proper diagnosis is key to treatment.
