How long,

Can anyone tell me how long a 5mg of escitalopram, stays in body for , I take mine 9.3am, I am on day 11 of it ,

It last for 24 hours. Do you mean how long it takes for it to work? If so it takes 3-4 weeks to notice something.

Oh day 12 5mg , not working for anxiety yet , adrenalin rushing still there, also on 7,5mg of mitazapine for sleep, been getting I'll the last 2 years, with menopausal Symptons,

The medication works upon a build up of the drug, therefore it will depend on how long you have taken it.

With these medications you will find the best way of coming of, also reducing the dose over time. We are all different. The longer you have been taking the drug the withdrawal will take time, weaning of the medication

Your GP will support you

It has a half life of about 30 hours. But obviously that will vary depending upon age and metabolism.
