Guest guest Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 Lyn G wrote Hey, my daughter takes Lexipro, and has been wondering about having the dosage increased. What dosage are you taking if I may ask? I am only taking 10 mg of the Lexapro and then I take 100mg of the 5-HTP. The Lexapro wasn't working all that well and they were really making me sleepy so I ask my DR. about increasing the dosage or changing me to something else. That's when he put me on the 5- Htp (5- Hydroxytryptophan)Its a precursor to serotonin. I get it at the health food store. You might ask her Dr. about it. Its made allot of difference for me and the cost isn't so high. Did you see the posting I sent with the prescription assistance web sites? If not, I can repost it. There is NO need to go without meds. Yes I did and I am looking in to it right now. I also fwd it to my mother who really needed the info. Thanks so much for all the help.
