I'm on lexapro (escitalopram) and klonopin and my lips have been so chapped that they crack and bleed ...is this normal?

Specializes in Periodontics

Dry mouth: It is probably related to the drying effects of your meds. Use something on your lips. Even you don't use lipstick, use lip balm. And avoid licking your lips, so an unflavored product is the best.
