I have been taking Lexapro a little over two weeks and feel a bit better, I read where it takes up to 30 days or more is that correct?

Yes, it usually takes about 4 weeks for it to reach its full level of efficacy in your body to see how well it will work for you.

The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and weight changes.

Is there anything else I can help with?
