Its likely safe but there is limited evidence to show efficacy (limited number of trials). Id hold off until you speak to psych, 1-2 days while you wait to speak to a psychiatrist for more clarification wont make a difference. It takes 6 weeks of consistent use before you really start to see much in the way of improvement to begin with, for most patients.
Pediatric Psych patient dosage9 F Caucasian 93 lbs 4ft 6?My daughter was prescribed Lexapro 5 mg and everything I'm reading online says it's not for children under 12. I reached out to her pediatrician and he says to contact them because it's their expertise. I've been trying but am not getting through. In the mean time, is this something I should hold off on giving her or is the dosage small enough?
