I was prescribed Lexapro 10mg yesterday and today was my first day taking it. After an hour of taking it I had a horrible panic attack come out of nowhere and lasted about an hour and half. 

Ive heard it's common and that it should subside after a few weeks but that seems like a long time. Has anyone experienced this or have any suggestions or meds they were taking with it to combat the attacks before their body got used to it?
