Why IPT?

Escitalopram (Lexapro) Medication Study for Adults |
E-mail
|
Why are we doing this study?
* Available medical research suggests that escitalopram (Lexapro) is often effective for Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD). It is currently considered a first-choice treatment for BDD.
* In this study, we are assessing how people who initially improve after 14 weeks of treatment with Lexapro do when Lexapro is either discontinued or continued for another 6 months. This is a very important question that patients and doctors often ask and which this study will help to answer.
