Guest guest Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Oh Good question ! Lexapro - is an anti - depressent. Often prescribed for depression - or bi - polar ( bi-polar is a ridiculous buz word in my book - but what ever) Thanks, Marilyn - Gina Kopera herbal remedies Friday, October 07, 2005 2:47 AM Re: Herbal Remedies - Holy Basil What is Lexpro for?

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Dear Marilyn I would caution taking your daughter off of Lexapro. Depending on her age, I would see an alternative at this point. Consult you doctor, and see why it is not agreeing with her first. KathGina Kopera <ginakopera1 wrote: What is Lexpro for?

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 There's two possible alternatives: Lobelia or nerve sedative. Both recipes are in the files on the group's website. love Lisa - marilyn herbal remedies Friday, October 07, 2005 12:09 PM Re: Herbal Remedies - Holy Basil Oh Good question !
