It is very important that your doctor check your progress at regular visits to allow for changes in your dose and to help reduce any side effects. Blood tests may be needed to check for any unwanted effects.
Do not take escitalopram with a monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor (eg, isocarboxazid [Marplan®], linezolid (Zyvox®), methylene blue injection, phenelzine [Nardil®], selegiline [Eldepryl®], tranylcypromine [Parnate®]).
Do not start taking escitalopram during the 14 days after you stop a MAO inhibitor.
How long does it take for lexapro to work for anxiety
Wait 14 days after stopping escitalopram before you start taking a MAO inhibitor. If you take them together or do not wait the proper amount of time, you may develop confusion, agitation, restlessness, stomach or bowel symptoms, a sudden high body temperature, an extremely high blood pressure, or severe seizures.
Do not take escitalopram with pimozide (Orap®). Using these medicines together can cause very serious heart problems.
Escitalopram may cause some teenagers and young adults to be agitated, irritable, or display other abnormal behaviors
