Used For:

Escitalopram as oxalate is an antidepressant in the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) class. It is commonly prescribed to treat major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and panic disorder. It works by increasing the levels of serotonin, a neurotransmitter in the brain that helps regulate mood, anxiety, and stress. Escitalopram is also used to treat social anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

Side Effects:

Common side effects include nausea, dry mouth, fatigue, insomnia, dizziness, and sexual dysfunction. Some individuals may also experience increased sweating, appetite changes, or weight gain. Serious but less common side effects include suicidal thoughts or behaviors (especially in young adults), serotonin syndrome (a rare but potentially life-threatening condition), or seizures. Allergic reactions such as rash, itching, or swelling may also occur.

Precautions:

Escitalopram should be used cautiously in individuals with a history of bipolar disorder, as it may trigger manic episodes. It should also be avoided in individuals with liver or kidney problems, as dosage adjustments may be necessary. Due to the risk of serotonin syndrome, it should not be taken in combination with other serotonin-enhancing drugs, including other SSRIs or monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs). Discontinuation should be done gradually under medical supervision to avoid withdrawal symptoms. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before using escitalopram, as it may pose risks to the fetus or infant
