A member asked:

Why did my dr give me lexapro/escitalopram for my tachycardia?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Anxiety: Lexapro (escitalopram) is used to treat anxiety and depression. If your doctor thinks your tachycardia may be because of anxiety, they might treat you with lexapro (escitalopram). It is important to have a frank conversation with your dr. And ask for the symptoms or anxiety. Anxiety and hyperventilation syndrome are very common and are just as real as a sore throat. If you are under new stress, etc., this can be a result.
