Brief Answer: no interactions with lexapro but with beta blocker Detailed Answer: HI, thanks for using healthcare magic There are no known interactions between these agents. Garcinia is known to have potential interactions with some other medications however. Many of the drug distributors warn that it may interfere with the action of beta blockers according to a report by the NCI (national cancer institute) on this agent. You may want to speak to your doctor about the possibility of this interaction and your v tachycardia. I hope this helps, feel free to ask to any other questions
