Luckily for me Olivia has slept through the night from day 1. She goes down at 7:00 pm and we see her no earlier than 12 hours later. My babies were all sleepers & I am thankful.
Wondering if you know by chance... my doc is only in Tuesday's and Thursday's. I am getting a cold, are over the counter cold meds safe with Lexapro and is a Tylenol. I have the worst headache today (possibly sinus with this cold) my head is thumping and I might actually have to brave it and take either a tylenol or cold med. All that ssri and other intial warnings scare me because I haven't educated myself as to what they mean yet.
since red isn't here right now - I'll say I am certain it is fine - however, I understand you might not want to just go by what I say - you can call your pharmacist and ask them - that's what they are there for
there are also several websites where you can plug in a whole bunch of meds and it will tell you of any contra-indications ...
hope that helps! ;)

Re: Lexapro and Me
I had to break down and take 2 tylenols and I am still amongst the living ... was scared to death but survived it :omg:
The gal here said she calls the pharmacy all the time when she wonders things. She also said she was pretty certain a tylenol can be taken with anything.

:hooray
good to know ;)
I have allergies and migraines, and non-migraine headaches a lot so I take allergy/cold meds not infrequently, and migraine meds, and pain relivers as needed - and I am still alive too! ;) :woohoo
it's good you are careful about the meds - just don't unneccesarily freak yourself out! lol :hrts

Re: Lexapro and Me
Sorry about that gals! Yes, tylenol is fine to take and just an fyi, make sure you talk to a pharmacist and not a pharmacy assistant etc. Even if they think they know, they aren't licensed to answer those types of questions. Good websites are webmd.com and the like for questions as well. Hope you feel better! :hrts
