I just started taking lexapro. Just 5mg this week then I'm supposed to increase to 10mg. I tried taking it with and without food but still feel a little nauseous for awhile after taking it. The info with the meds said this can be a common side effect and usually goes away after a few weeks. Has that been other people's experience?

Yes, for me it went away after two days. No worries, hang in there. nausea on lexapro Unless it lasts longer than two weeks.. Then you should try to get a hold of your doctor.

Also, if the nausea goes away before you increase your dose, you might experience it again after increasing the dose.
