In reply to Lexapro Poop-out..would an increase help?, posted by almondjoy on November 18, 2003, at 3:07:55
You need to take folic acid with all SSRI's
there is some theory about SSRi's and that poop out is related to low folic acid levels.
When I took Celexa, I was able to half my dose with the addition of folic acid, and still get a very good responce.
Take 1 mg if you are not already, it is a water soluble vitamin, and it is very safe. YOu should notice the added benefit within a week. It is the one of the cheapest vitamins available. It's worth a try.
