From a scale of 1 to 10 , how possible is it for one to experience side effects? i have been prescribed lexamil 5 mg and i read the package insert and now im scared to take them. also is it safe ti take with my contraceptive nordette & canex cream?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
About fear...: A person can read the package insert for escitalopram and see what percentage of patients got "side effect" symptoms. The package insert can be a name brand such as Lexapro or Lexamil. Some symptoms are common, as in maybe 1 out of 5, or 1 out of 10 people. Some symptoms are rare, as in maybe 1 out of 10,000. Discuss each symptom's (that is causing fear) rareness with the prescribing doctor.
