What the interaction means
Escitalopram's own FDA label does not name iron anywhere in its Drug Interactions section. The NIH ODS iron fact sheet does not mention escitalopram, citalopram, SSRI, serotonin, or antidepressant; its interactions section names levodopa, levothyroxine, proton pump inhibitors, and calcium.
No documented interaction was identified in the authoritative sources reviewed. This is not a guarantee that no interaction exists for every dose, formulation, or individual -- it means the sources checked did not document one.
Practical context
Both substances' own current authoritative sources were checked directly, full text, in both directions.
