Nexito contains escitalopram and it is a SSRI. It usually takes two weeks to show response. Initial 4 to 5 days, drug takes to maintain drug level in body and after that, it would show its response. Just wait for two weeks and after that you would get desired response. Mean time, rivotril would help you to get sleep and decrease anxiety symptoms. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
