Hi, are there any anti-depressants out there which do not cause constipation? Currently on lexapro and my stomach is not doing well.

Bumping this topic up, in case an IBS-Cer has some useful information.

SSRIs (Prozac, Celexa, Zoloft and Paxil) are usually used in low-doses to treat IBS-Cers. Lexapro is also an SSRI, so maybe you just need to try a different AD. How long have you been taking it?
