[QUOTE="Josie, post: 395010, member: 1792"] I'm pretty sure Lexapro is approved for depression in adolescents age 12 - 17. One of my girls is on it now at 12 and the other was on it when she was younger, even before it was approved for 12 year olds. Neither one of them gained weight on it or had other noticeable side effects. The downside I see in Lexapro is that missing even one dose caused very volatile behaviour in my older one. A very extreme version of what she was like before she started the Lexapro. It was scary. With a teenager, out on her own at times, I would want to be very sure that she was taking it every day without fail. [/QUOTE]
