I take Lexapro currently and recently had my dose increased, I've noticed a slow down in my weight loss. I'm not sure if they are related though...

I do know that when I took Prozac, years ago, I did put on about 20 pounds or so. It also killed my sex drive (which was ultimately why I had my Dr. switch me to something else).

I am thinking of trying 5-HTP, but not sure how I should go about switching from my Lexapro to it, perhaps by easing out of one and into the other.
