Brief Answer:
It could be due to Cipralex
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
I read your query and understand your concerns.
First of all I like to inform you that night sweats are caused by many other conditions and lymphoma falls much letter in hierarchy. With available details it is possible that night clothing was the possible reason for night time sweating. In addition Cipralex is well associated with night sweats and there is will be no XXXXXXX if your latest experience was due to Cipralex.
In addition absence of fever and night sweats, which are constitutional symptoms of lymphoma/leukemia almost rules out the sinister pathology. Presence of normal blood picture few month again conclusively supports the other causes of night sweats.
I hope this assists you.
If you have more questions I will be glad to assist you further.
