agonmelatine ## when will this stuff be available to the public? i've been reading about it for the past 2 1/2 years; I really need something to replace my paroxatine...to get my libido back...if it works like they say. ## It is very hard to say, it can take years between conception, testing, and approval by the FDA before something ever makes it out into the drug stores to be prescribed and used. ## yeah, but it already has a trade mame(s), and it's in phase 4 clinical trials. novartis lists it in 2008, but i don't know if that's the actual release date or the date they will apply to the fda. ## Try Lexapro, my friend says he had no as as many sexual problems as with aropax ## Well, I am sorry, I don't know what else to tell you. If it is only know in Phase 4 trials...

a friend has had serious side effects from this drug and has commited suicide. ## My gosh I am so sorry to hear that. I hope the family will be seeking compensation for this in some form or another. It is really really sad when the side effects of the drug overpower it's intended use. I think the med you are talking about is called Lexapro - I would read about it. I am not sure if extreme depression or suicidal tendencies is a common side effect of this. May God bless you, your friend, and your friend's family.

I am trying to find out if anyone is taking lexapro for symtoms other than depression? ## Hey I am Taking Lexapro They are giving it to me for depression and bipolar I am now taking 40 mg of it which can increase the risk of ceasures lol i cant spell that but it wont work for me if i take any less along with 1500 mg of depicoat and 30 mg adderol xr so i can concentrate also. So I take the lexapro to stablize my mood depression and it helps me concentrate all 3 together work well. How are you taking it? Weve tried at least 30 different meds and ive been to the hospital 4 time and day treatment 3 times and thats the only combination thats even worked for me.! ## I have hypertension which is better controlled with 20 mg of Lexapro, than before taking lexapro.

Lexapro is a miracle for me. I have a panic disorder for being in small groups or large crowds. Those panic attacks have disappeared. My energy level is low but I feel much more positive. I tried to commit suicide twice in the last year but I don't have those thoughts anymore. I was on Webutrin and Prozac until two months ago. Lexapro has turned my life around. ## what does it look like ?? ## It's small&medium size white round pill. Small is 10mg Med.is 20mg. I was on it & it worked good for me... ## lexapro has wo0rked great for me i am not having bad anxiety attack and i am sleeping great at night.i also have had nosexual side effects ## I clicked the 'report abuse by mistake on gary dated 7/2/05.
