Hello, I Believe I Am Currently Experiencing New Side Effects
Question: Hello,
I believe I am currently experiencing new side effects from my medication. The last pills i took were buspar and lexapro (generic of both) at around 2-2:30 am. I have been extremely anxious, excitable, and have sweating in my palms and feet as well as insomnia and muscle weakness. Should I go to the ER? Or wait for it to wear off?
