    Hi Babe2.

    Best thing to do is not read things on line. For every bad experience on here there will be 100 good. I have been on citalopram 2wice in my life and I did have some very mild side effects, but nothing I couldn't handle.

    You will be okay x x x

    Hi babe,

    The ole saying dont worry until there's reason for worry smile I took Citalopram at first last year had some side effects (nothing serious) however came off early this year and fell off the cliff and needed to go back, this time round feel fine no side effects at all. So theres no telling if you will get any side effects or minimal. Trust me taking the med is way better than suffering the symptoms wink

    Babe2,

    There are a lot of stories both good and bad on the internet about cit. Everyone has a different reaction to medication so you're gonna have to see for yourself. For me other than a little insomnia at night and excessive yawning firing th day I didn't have many side effects.
