Clinically significant QTc prolongation has been described as absolute QTc 500 msec, and as QTc 25% from baseline, or change of QTc 60
QTc-prolongation and Torsade de Pointes – Escitalopram is associated with a dose-dependent increase 10 mg/day Lexapro, or 20 mg/day Lexapro. Adverse
Pimozide and Celexa, citalopram, may increase the QTc of the heart which could lead to a heart attack or heart failure. Escitalopram (or Lexapro)
The risk or severity of QTc prolongation can be increased when Trazodone is combined with Escitalopram. FDA Approved Drug Products: Lexapro (escitalopram) for
So I would keep an eye on this with regular EKGs, and the Lexapro is likely responsible for the increased QTc, but as long as it stays at this

Both hydroxyzine and oxybutynin are high in anticholinergic effects. These Escitalopram (Lexapro) –higher risk for QTc prolongation.
Pimozide and Celexa, citalopram, may increase the QTc of the heart which could lead to a heart attack or heart failure. Escitalopram (or Lexapro)
I grant that the effect is real, as many women on Lexapro have found, but its administration has to be subtle.
