I started taking Lexapro and Ambien two days ago. The first day I felt ok, but today I have a splitting headache. I have a history of headaches, which are well controlled at this time. Due to my headache history, I was started on only 5 mg of Lexapro. I really want this to work. Do headaches sometimes go away as treatment continues?

Dear Jen334,
Yes, often the headaches will go away as your body accomodates to the medication. If you feel that you can tolerate waiting a little bit, you may find that the headaches stop. However, it may take a few days to a week or two. If the headaches persist or worsen, contact your doctor. Good luck!
