cipralex and chest pain

I'm a 20 year old female, who has recently been put on cipralex for panic attacks and anxiety. About a week ago I came out in a strange red rash on my chest. I have also been experiencing blurring vision and lightheadedness several times a day. Usually when I wake up in the morning I have had quite bad headaches which usually pass within an hour of being awake. I'm worrying whether this could be the medication or something else. Should I go to a doctor or is it anxiety related?

I would c a cardiologist and have a stress test, ecg and echo to c d status of my heart, how is ur bp

Since taking Cipralex 10mg daily for one month I have been having constant head pain. Not really a headache but a pain in my head. It will go around my ears, behind my eyes and into my neck. I have told my doctor and he just says not to worry about it but it is not getting better. Anyone else have these same side effects? Also I get pins and needles up and down my arms and legs would this be a side effect? Thanks in advance.

My went to visit my doctor about my anxiety and sleeping issues and he has put me on Cipralex 10mg dosage a day and also prescribed me 50mg of trazodone to be taken at bedtime to help me sleep. Does anyone take these prescriptions? if so could I please get some feedback on them?

i am 28 with fybromyalgia, i have constant tingling in my arm and hand and also lots of nerve twitching, i am always worse before my period, and round this time i dont feel well my heart palpitates with slight pains in my chest, and i feel tired and out of breath and my legs feel like they are gonna leave me when i walk and sometimes they give way for a second, but i never fall, any ideas why im like this?

I am facing burning feet and shin while sitting since last 5 years. My NCS, RA Factor, ANA, ESR are normal. I have taken variety of medicines including Dulan, ronirol, tegral, prothyadine, cipralex, epival cr 500, sensival 25 etc. but my problem is still not resolved. During this problem i started walk which increased the problem. However, during walk i feel very normal i.e. no painful burning sensation, i feel. This is important that when i lay down i donot feel pain.

So do you think panic and fear can be an extra side effect of cipralex and i should increase the above doze of xanax.

I was on Cipralex for a year since losing dad and losing my job. had bad anxiety and insomnia.

I take both those meds and avoid all cold medicines and over the counter medications because they can interact with the cipralex and serequel. I always call my pharmacist and ask which medications could counteract with my anti depressants.

anxiety is a common denominator for all psych disorders. it's not specific to BP alone. Taking cipralex will do you good for a while but then it will drive you manic eventually. you said cipralex, is it the only drug you take or along with other meds ? because if you take mood stabilizers along with then perhaps it's safe. but i never heard someone with BP is prescribed an antidepressant only. cipralex is rather strong it's an SSRI.

Then I was referred to a gastro specialist who gave me Lozal, cipralex 10mg, colofac, and to continue ciproxin for 3 days and after four days I had my endoscopy. I felt terrible due to cipralex and told the doctor who replaced cipralex ( after four days of me using it ) with lexotanil. And endoscopy result was stomach: mild to moderate erythema of fundus and atrum, bile reflux seen. Others were normal, conclusion: mild to moderate pan gastritis, bile reflux seen.

He told me to consult with the psychristic. I consulted with the psychristic. He advised me to take cipralex for one and half month. After taking the cipralex too i feels the same sympton. For that i once again consulted with the other neurophysician in bangalore. He advised me for doing the MRI Scan. The result of the MRI saying "Mild ectopia of cerebellar tonsils. The tips of the tonsil is 5mm below the formen magnum. No mass effect is seen on the Brain stem.

I met a psychologist and he said I am suffering from Panic Disorder and anxiety and I start taking Cipralex 5 mg and later 10 mg. I was feeling good after that and no more panics for 9 month. After 9 months taking Cipralex I again fwlt not good, I was changing moods and the pill made me feeling tired, fatigue, and weak. So, I drop the medicine. after that I had a dental surgery to remove my wisdome tooth.

Hello. I am a 19 year old active female and I am also feeling the chest tightness/pain, shortness of breath, and I am even having palpitations. I've gone to a primary care doctor, a cardiologist, and a pulmonogist and everyone says all the tests came back fine. But with these symptoms happening almost all day long, I just dont understand how everything can be fine. Can anyone help?

I have had head aches on cipralex, and when I drink some or even more then some drinks I get almost sick with a head ache. 1) are head aches common in taking anxiety drugs, 2) any way preventing the head aches. 3) dry mouth is that common with these drugs.

I have been to the doctor to check my chest pain - via ECG and my ECG is normal. The doctor also did a thyroid test and it is normal. is this signs of anxiety disorder?

I would give it some time. and don't keep checking your heart rate. Cipralex and this class of drugs are long acting and not something that would just drop your heart rate. But as your stress and anxiety decrease, your heart rate in the resting mode may go back to normal. A resting heart rate of 50 is in the normal range. You are on a low dose. Hope it helps your anxiety/panic. I have found that often anxiety takes a bit higher dose to really work well.

I have been to the GP and a psychiatrist and have been on Cipralex, pristiq, zoloft and xanax, all with limited effects. I am yet to start CBT, as my shrink believes its better to find a medication that makes me feel somewhat better before starting that form of therapy. My anxiety usually peaks either when I am away from home (out of my routine) or when i am looking forward to something and as a result at greater fear of anxiety returning and ruining it.

4 and should be less than 6 mg/L Vitamin D is 67 and should be 75/250 nmol/L I am constantly tired in the day, extremely fatigued, came off of cipralex 3 months ago which I was on for 10 months and gained 40 lbs (have never fluctuated for than 10-15 lbs in my life), and now recently am having pain that comes and goes behind my ribs in the back and in the lower abdominal around the sides/hips and a bit below the belly button,pressure on bladder, constantly needing to pee

Hi, I started off with depression years ago. Then when the Cipralex stopped working, I realised with my doctor that it wasn't depression anymore, but bad anxiety. My doctor put me on 150mg of Effexor. That didn't help, if anything it got worse. For weeks I had this tightness in my chest. I was really stressed, couldn't deal with anything. One night the pain got really bad and wouldn't go away. I threw up a couple times and nothing made the pain go away.

When I stopped, I was fine for six months but my depression suddenly started again. I restarted taking cipralex 10 mg one each night and I improved quickly. Now it is four years that I am taking it. I now want to stop it because I am having very decreased sixual drive. So my question is that, Will my sexual drive improve when I stop taking cipralex?

Do i need to worry about these two pimples, because i have recently also started anxiety medication, Xanax and Cipralex for my depression and anxiety issues, can these pimples on my upper arm related to that or is this a concern for me? I would really appreciate if you can please answer.

I was on cipralex (lexapro in the US) for almost 3 years and initially experienced some dry mouth, but no extreme side effects at all. It worked amazingly for me. I started on 10mg and then doubled to 20mg after 1 year. I recently switched to Paxil about 1 month ago, and have really disliked the way it makes me feel. My anxiety has been much worse and the side effects are just awful. It has been so much worse than cipralex.
