Changing hours of anti depressants
Hi! So I started to get panic attacks so saw a psychiatrist that prescribed me Lexapro. Everything is good but I first started taking them at night and gave me insomnia so I decided to take them in the mornings, now they are making me sleepy in the day, is it ok to change to taking them at night again? The dr is in another state so I cant ask him.
