hello there. been on lexapro about three weeks now and i've been having night sweats, day sweats, have to wear tank tops to stay cool all the time kind of sweats. asked my pdoc about it and its a common adverse reaction.
as far as the heartburn, i'm not the best person to respond because i'm digestively challenged as it is, and couldnt say for sure if its the lexapro or not. if these things are bothering you, you might want to discuss it with your doc. in the meantime, mint is a wonderful digestive aid. try brewing a tea with fresh mint leaves. you also might want to avoid spicy food and anything with tomatos or oranges until youre feeling better.
