Can Withdrawal Of 20 Mg Lexipro Cause Headache,dark Circles On Eyelids And Fatigue?

My 15 year old daughter is on 20 mg of lexipro the generic brand. I was out of town and i don t think she took it for 3 days. What are some signs i should look for? She has had a stomach ache and headache today, she eyes have dark circles mostly on the eyelids and she has seemed more down. Are these signs of her not taking her medicine?

Hi, welcome to Health care magic forum.
By not taking for few days,there wont be any symptoms except,the symptoms of the disease,or the withdrawal symptoms.
The symptoms you have described might be due to the withdrawal so if it is resumed,she may be all right.
Let her take more of green leafy vegetables,pulses,sprouts,and protein rich foods to have blood,general health and resistance against infections and to maintain good health.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
