Frequency: Yes, lexapro can lead to increased urinary frequency which might improve with time as some side effects do. Increased urination may also occur if dry mouth develops on lexapro as this can lead to excess drinking band this to frequent urination. Talk to your doctor about all side effects of your medication.
