Side Effects/Pounding (Luann)
Am sorry I confused you re: anxiety attacks being a side effect…what
I meant was, some people do experience anxiety or “more” anxiety as a
side effect when taking lexapro (read insert - ask doc). I didn’t have
that as a side effect as that’s what I was also taking Lexapro for and
it worked great for me as well as for depression and panic. It also
took a good 2 months, at least, to see all the results that this
medication ultimately gave me. I take it in the a.m. and take sleeping
meds to sleep at night. Dalmane doesn’t give me a “hangover” in the
morning when I wake up - fortunately - and gives me a fairly good
night’s sleep, usually.
It is a good idea that you see a dr. re: pounding of your heart - it
can be so many different things or it could be nothing. Regardless,
it’s a good thing to be reasured if nothing else :o).
Good Luck
