Escitalopram

Escitalopram is a prescription medication used to treat depression and anxiety disorders, such as generalized anxiety disorder and social anxiety disorder. It belongs to a class of drugs known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), which work by increasing the levels of serotonin in the brain. This helps improve mood, sleep, appetite, and energy levels. Escitalopram is typically taken orally in the form of tablets or liquid solution. It may take several weeks for the full effects of the medication to be felt. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and instructions provided by a healthcare professional when taking Escitalopram.
