LEX AND CHOLESTEROL LEVELS.....

[Guest guest]

Hi Eveyone:

I have been on Lexapro for 5 months now....Because I am hypersensiive

to ALL drugs, we have taken increased dosages verrry slowly...

I increased my dosage again two months ago.......Had labs for an

already high cholesterol level and now found it has increased 50 points

in a few months...Yes, I have gained about 8 plus lbs since on Lex

also...

Has anyone else experienced a dramatic increase in their cholesterol

level since taking Lex????

My doc says the Lex doesn't increase the cholesterol.....probably the

fact that my appetite is better........I do watch what I eat, so

wondering??

Thanks for your response......God Bless you all......joann-marie
