Escitalopram
anxiety
"On my 7th day of Lexapro I developed a rash on my arms and was alarmed, especially when I read about the possibility of rash being a side effect of the medication.  With my doctor's guidance I treated the rash as a contact allergy (detergent, etc.) and kept taking the Lexapro. The rash came back one more time but never again.  Lexapro did not give me the sudden weight loss, dizziness, visual "trails", nausea, etc. of other SSRI's I had tried before (Prozac worked for me, anxiety-wise, but the side effects were a bit much... Paxil resulted in extreme dizziness and was stopped after only a few days).  I find Lexapro worth the extra money and recommend it even to people who may have had bad experiences with SSRI's before."
