  1. Kati...all may be side effects of Lexapro, but should not last more than a few days to a week.  Try taking it at bedtime so you can sleep through the worst of the nausea and sleepiness.  Lexapro is known for having less intense side effects than other SSRI medications.  I have taken it myself and only had side effects two or three days.

    We all do react differently to these and other kinds of medications so it problems continue past a week or so, you should talk to your doctor.
