Hello. Escitalopram is an antidepressant drug that also has painkiller effect in neuropathic pain. Side effects diminish with the passage of days.
I recommend you continue taking the drug and talk to your neurologist if adverse effects persist 15 days after the start of treatment.
I wish you good health.
