Anxiety and Missed Doses
Hello,
I have been taking Lex for about a year, and recently in the last
few days have been experiencing physical anxiety symptoms… I get
lazy sometimes, and missed my medication for about 2-3 days…I can’t
really relate them with too much out of the ordinary in my life, the
physical symptoms usually occur after sleep, and it just feels like
adrenaline is running through my whole body and won’t stop… The
episode started after a night of really intense emoional dreams in
which I woke up in a panic state…
Has anyone else had these symptoms after missing doses, and how
long does it usually take to even out again… Just wanted to see if
anyone has some advice… I feel this urge to take 20 mg instead of
the 10 I usually take, and my Dr is out of town for another week…
thanks

I’ve had this happen as well. I was suddenly removed from the drug
due to medical emergency in December. It should go away after a few
days if you go back on. After three weeks I was put back on at a
milder dose as my anxiety was so bad. I have once again been removed
from the medication and am in the two week waiting period before
starting an MAOI.
