For all of you who take (or used to take) lexapro, when is the best time to take it, morning or night? My doc just told me to take it the same time every day. Have any of you have some advice on which time worked best for you?
Also, did any of you get worse Constipation from it? I am already having a problem with C and this drug seems to increase the C. My doc says to wait it out another week (it's already been 2 weeks) and to take Magnesium Citrate (bottled liquid) if it gets too bad. Or Zelnorm,but that stuff gives me nasty headaches.
Okay, if I do need to resort to Zelnorm, when should I take that one! In the am along with the lexapro? Or at night? See, this one gives me headaches and an overall blah feeling. If I took it in the PM would I sleep through the headache? Or maybe I would be up all night. And how long does it usually take to get the BM. This zelnorm is only temporary until hopefully the C from the lexapro wears off. It better wear off or no more lexapro for me!!!I'd rather have my BM's back however small they were, better than nothing. Perhaps there is another option to the zelnorm to help the BMS till the lexapro C goes away?
Any help on either of these two drugs, taken together or just the lexapro alone would be greatly appreciated! Thanks again.
