Combining Escitalopram with herbal preparations containing melatonin, valerian, passionflower, and lemon balm could potentially lead to drug interactions.

Escitalopram is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) medicine used to treat depression and anxiety disorders. Escitalopram and the listed herbs may cause additive side effects such as dizziness, impaired balance and motor coordination.

Therefore, it is important to tell your doctor about all medications and herbal supplements you are taking to assess the risk of interactions and adjust dosage as needed. You should also avoid driving and operating machines while taking this combination of medications until your individual reaction is known.
