Take orally once daily with or without food. Try to take the dose at the same time each day for consistency. Do not abruptly stop taking without consulting a physician.
Interaction:
Escitalopram may interact with other serotonergic drugs (e.g., triptans, MAOIs), NSAIDs, anticoagulants, and other CNS-active agents. Caution is advised due to risk of serotonin syndrome and bleeding.
