I take lexapro and they seem to make me sleepy about an hour after i take one. I take them in the morning. I was wondering if its ok to take them at bedtime? My fiance says to take it in the morning so that it will work for me all day long, but they just sometimes make me feel like crap. I dont know waht to do? any suggestions?

It is okay to take it at night before you go to bed. It is a 24 hour pill so it continues to work for 24hrs. It doesn't matter when you take it. If you prefer to take it at bedtime it is ok to do so.

I would ask your doctor to prescribe a slow release capsule, that will slowly release the drug into your system as the day goes by, it seems that the dosage you are on is turning you into a zombie -and thats not what they should be doing.
Hope that helps

What did your doctor tell you ? What does it say on the label of the bottle? They're not going to work when you're asleep at night ! I'd return to the doctor and ask him / her more advice...

PM is recommended
