While researchers are still working on understanding exactly how serotonin works in the brain, they have found that when it is more readily available in the blood, it can reduce the symptoms that are associated with anxiety and depression. These two diagnoses are the main reasons why Cipralex is often prescribed, and it is found under the brand names Lexapro and Nexito.
Serotonin appears to play a major role in how we feel, how well we sleep, and our appetite levels too. By improving its availability, many people experience improvements in all three areas. However, serious issues can result when you become addicted to drugs like Cipralex, and it’s important to know how to recognize this type of addiction.

Verify InsuranceAn addiction to Cipralex can begin in many ways, and for most people, it happens without them realizing it’s even happening. Quite often, people develop a psychological addiction to the medication because they’ve experienced that they feel better when they take it. Others have found that while they felt better for a little while, they quickly developed a tolerance for Cipralex. As a result, they may have increased their dosage without talking to their doctor first as a way to feel better.
