Lexapro's Maker Sued Over Suicides
Here's a tragic story: two brothers, both on Lexapro, commit suicide. Now their family has sued the drug's maker, Forest. I'm not sure about Lexapro's track record with suicide and suicidality, but I wouldn't be suprised if it has the same degreee of problems a la Prozac and Paxil. I took Lexapro once upon a time for about 7 months. When I came off it, the back of my neck was buzzing and I had the shakes. Powerful stuff. So nothing would surprise me.

I hope Forest has to pay up for what happened to this poor family. I'm glad to see it, even though somebody else beat me to suing Forest for "suicidality". I hope they lose a lot of money.
yeah it's bad shit.
know people who compare it to celexa.
the buzzing out the finger tips, shaking beyond abiilty to sit in a chair, sweats, nightmares...chemicals, and wow we can get free samples.
What a score.
