Increasing from 10 to 20

Posted , 3 users are following.

Ive been on 10mg for exactly 10 weeks and after seeing the GP yesterday shes advised me to increase to 20mg. The side effects have eased off loads but i feel i need a little push to get me back to somewhat 'normal' hence why ive been told to increase. Im terrified of the side effects again can i have reassurance on how you guys felt when you increased like me? and how long the side effects took to ease? X

    what medication is this? I moved from 10 to 20 mg citalopram and because it was already in my system had no further side effects. if gp suggested it I would go with it - 10mg is extremely low dose. x
