Guest guest Posted February 13, 2003 Report Share Posted February 13, 2003 Crystal ~ they are very small white tablets. Jolene Lexapro question Hi guys, I got my bottle of Lex from the Pharmacy, and just because I am such a worry wart, can someone please tell me what the tablets look like? Mine are 10 mgs... I think I'll start at 5 mgs or maybe even half that... if somebody can describe the tabs to me, I'd be really appreciative! I have never seen what they are supposed to look like, and you know how there have been lots of mess ups with the pharmacies giving out the wrong drug and all. A couple of years ago in my neighboring town a woman died because she was given the wrong med... Thanks!! Crystal PS: You know what else, they didn't put a side effect profile on the info sheet that they give out, weird. They always have that info. I guess I'll give them a call, I like to see what s/e's they put down... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2003 Report Share Posted February 14, 2003 Thanks Bob! I already went over the Lex site lots, I just find it interesting as to exactly which sides the Pharmacies list on their info sheet, ya know what I mean? It can be quite different. I plan on going to ask if they made a mistake. I was kinda wishful thinking that they didn't put any sides there because they aren't so bad at all, LOL!! one can dream! anyway, thanks for the info. I just woke up from a short snooze, so I hope I'm not confusing here...

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2003 Report Share Posted February 14, 2003 My pharmarcy (Target) does include a full list about Lex, including a list of the (many) sides it can cause. Next time you're back at your pharmacy, I'd definitely ask for it. Good luck, Re: Re: Lexapro question > Thanks Bob!

I just woke up from a short snooze, so I hope I'm not confusing here... The sides aren't that bad (or I should say others can be worse) and what there is (for me) seemed to fade pretty much after the first couple weeks. I changed from taking at night until the morning because it did affect my sleep habits and then being over-tired caused me other problems, but you'll have to decide what's best for you. This group is great support, so keep asking and we'll keep answering.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 14, 2003 Report Share Posted February 14, 2003 LOL! I knew that! truly I did! It's been a long week for me, and I was wondering who the new person was for a bit, LOL sorry Crystal > Thanks Bob! Hehehehe... name's not Bob...

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2003 Report Share Posted February 14, 2003 , I did get alprazolam (xanax) at the same time, and they included the sides on a sheet for that, but the sheet they had for the Lexapro was blank, except for the dosage. If a customer wants we can request more info whenever we'd like. I will go and clear it up. Like I said, I was really just wishful thinking, LOL ...my pharmacy is Stop and Shop...
