Anxiety Medication Making Me Sick: What Should I Do?

My medication I am on for anxiety (Lexapro) is making me really sick each morning and it feels as if my anxiety gets worse when I take it. Should I continue taking it or talk to my doctor?

I would definitely talk to your doctor and see if you should stop taking it and/or try another medicine.

could be another issue but to be safe i’d listen to your body and mention it to them.

I would consider consulting the attending physician. It could be a transient side effect, and it could also be that the drug is just not right for you ... In any case, I would not stop on my own …

Is it new medication? In the beginning it can do this, I take my pills with water and food and it helps me prevent nausea. Also definitely you should talk with your doctor and inform him.
