A member asked:
Hi there is it safe to be on 15mg of escitalopram while taking ibuprofen regularly for 2 days? i just got my wisdom teeth out?

Lexapro may contribute to more bleeding when taken together with ibuprofen. This is ultimately a question that your oral surgeon will need to decide – if they were not made aware of your taking escitalopram when instructing you to take ibuprofen, then you will have to make them aware of it and ask them directly.
