I had a very hard time sleeping my first couple of weeks on Lexapro too...around 2 1/2 weeks my sleep improved...what helped me when I had trouble sleeping was Tylenol PM...i found it very effective in helping me get to sleep..
> I moved around time of dose also from morning to evening when I started Lex. Took OTC TylenolPM to help sleep. Tried Melatonin, did not work for me.

> Started Lex in Feb, was an insomniac prior to taking Lex, now I sleep very well.
