  • Description

    Escitalopram is a type of antidepressant that functions as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. It is the S-enantiomer of citalopram, and it regulates the levels of neurotransmitters in the brain. More specifically, Escitalopram helps to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety by inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin in the brain, increasing the concentration of serotonin in the synaptic cleft, and increasing the stimulation of postsynaptic serotonin receptors. This effect on serotonin neurotransmission is what contributes to its therapeutic effects on depression and generalized anxiety disorder.

  • Missed Dose

    Maintaining a consistent schedule for taking antidepressants is crucial, as skipping doses can lead to withdrawal symptoms and a relapse of the condition. If you miss a dose of escitalopram, you may take it as soon as possible, but if it's already time for your next dose, simply continue with your regular schedule.
