I spoke with a pharmacist that we go to church with this morning and told him how I was feeling the past week and the first thing he asked me was if I was a big coffee drinker…
Uh…YEAH….so?
Turns out that coffee pretty much sets in motion the things in your body that Lexapro does and so it was like I was getting a double dose…
He suggested that I cut back to 5 mg. until my body gets used to the med or try to take it in the afternoon after I’ve had my coffee. I think I will try the latter suggestion and see what happens with that first. I have felt better today, but I haven’t drank as much coffee as I usually do…my stomach has been too upset by the headaches for me to drink alot of it.
So…we’ll see how it works this week…
