Hi, I'm NV720

August 24, 2026··
Hello, I began my Lexapro taper in March. I started at 10 mg and I have been on it for 3 years. I’m tapering 10% of previous dose every 6 weeks. I’m currently at 5.9 ml liquid. So far no issues but I know it’s going to get harder.

Lexapro — 5.9 ml — 3 years — actively tapering
