Does Taking Escitalopram And Hydroxyurea Together Cause Dizziness?
I am taking escitalipram and hydroxerea. Doctor increased my hydr....to 1000,500,500 dosage. And I take escitalipram 20mg daily. I get lightheaded off and on and tired all the time and gained 10 pounds. Is it possibly be the drug interaction.

I would suggest to consult with your doctor about this side effect. You can do possible changes in dose,timing or take an alternative medication.
