Escitalopram is a medication used to treat depression and anxiety disorders. It belongs to a class of drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), which work by increasing the levels of the neurotransmitter serotonin in the brain.

Escitalopram is typically taken once a day, with or without food. The recommended starting dose for adults is usually 10 mg per day, which can be increased to 20 mg per day if needed. However, the dosage may vary depending on the individual's condition and response to treatment.
It is important to follow the instructions provided by your doctor or pharmacist when taking escitalopram. Taking more than the prescribed amount or using the medication for longer than recommended may increase the risk of side effects.
