Is it better to take escitalopram in the evening or in the morning in order to minimize this side effect for me?

It is generally recommended to take escitalopram in the morning to avoid any potential drowsiness that may occur as a side effect. However, if you find that taking it in the morning makes you feel more drowsy, you may consider taking it in the evening instead. It's important to always consult with your healthcare provider or pharmacist before making any changes to your medication schedule.
