Citalopram Usage

Posted , 5 users are following.

I was diagnosed in January of this year with PTSD & Panic disorder. As part of this, I've also developed a medication phobia. My question, I took Citalopram 10mg several years ago, with no side effects that I recall. I want to try it again, and have the meds on hand, but with my med phobia I've been reluctant to start it. What is the likelihood of experiencing side effects, as I experienced none the first time around?

    I restarted Citalopram after stopping. The side effects were the same as when I originally started. Not bad. I'm the same way with medication that's why i stayed with citalopram.

    Good luck!!
