Re: Lexapro       10/03/07 05:35 PM Edit Reply Quote Cast_Away Reged: 08/15/07 Posts: 48 Loc: Orlando, Florida Line 415 gave some excellent advice. I was taking Lexapro and Topamax. Both help with moods and anxiety-PLUS the main side affect is constipation. That's a really good cocktail mix for IBS-Ds. I switched out the Lexapro for Cymbalta last year. The affect is still amazing. I only take 10 mg and 25 mg. The only addiction I feel is that you have to slowly stop taking it so your body will remember to secreet saratonin on it's own- and don't worry- it will! I won't be coming off it until I am ready to try for babies though. I was going 10-20 times a day until my primary recommended I try this. My gastro had me on every drug possible to try to stop the attacks. This is what worked to get me to 2-3 times a day and Heather's diet has gotten me to 1 a day! Now I am welcoming back my quality of life! -------------------- IBS-D, with Coloitis from surgery Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
