Just a quick question for a friend that has no computer access...What is the range of mgs that Lexapro is generally given to kids with anxiety? Her girl is 9 years old. I have an adult friend that swears by it and she's on 20mgs per day. Thanks in advance.

hopeful, i dont know what is usually given to kids, but i do know that 20 mg is the max given to adults. i was on it and it helped my depression for awhile. adults are usually started on 10mg and increased to 20mg if necessary. sorry i dont know about kids dosage, but i'm guessing the weight of the child would be a factor.
