I take lexapro daily for anxiety disorder. It is a godsend. Did anyone have to stop taking it for a period of time before or after surgery ?

I don't take lexapro, but I do take an anti-depressant. I was told to take before and after because anesthesia can aggravate depression.

Definitely continue your lexapro, before and after, you do not want to stop taking it and doctors strongly recommend staying on it
