Hi! I have recently started Lexapro… yes the antidepressant… for my delayed gastric emptying. I’m only on 5mg, but the side effects from it are killing me! I’ve been told to take it at night so the effects are reduced, but it is still bothering me. I also am experiencing insomnia from the lexapro, even with taking my sleep medication. Apparently the lexapro will begin working in 4-6 weeks and the side effects will slowly reduce, but i’m not sure I can tolerate them because i’m in my last year of highschool and NEED to pass my classes. Has anyone been successful with lexapro for delayed gastric emptying? And if so, how long did it take for your side effects to go away? What can help with my insomnia from the medication, dizziness, nausea, and the constant headache? Thank you :)
