Is there any sort of alternative treatment available for Pseudotumor Cerebri?

hrcollector70 asked:
My wife was diagnosed as having Pseudotumor Cerebri over a year ago, after suffering with several headaches behind her right eye for no apparent reason. She has had a spinal tap to drain off some of the fluid and relieve some of the pressure. The tap site did not seal, however as a result she was in agony the entire weekend. The doctor had her to go for a blood patch to seal the hole that following Monday. She has been taking Acetazolamide twice a day to help with the headaches. One of the side effects of the medications, however is whenever she will drink any sort of carbonated beverage “it’s like battery acid in her mouth.” Being “a fifth generation Atlantian”, she enjoys drinking Coca-Cola. Is there any sort of alternative treatment available, so that she does not have to deal with these circumstances?

I am my 16 year old nephews guardian, he is in a rehabliltation facility, I was told he requested something for depression. Upon seeing the PA at the facility I was informed they need my consent to administer the medication. I’m wondering if lexapro is a little too strong for him.
