    I had that happen me, I was on 20mg of citalopram, got my bloods done and my liver function was high, I had to keep going back to get it tested, I started to wean off and once I got down to 10mg every other day my liver function was back to normal, obviously I believe the citalopram caused my liver function to rise.

    Hi

    yes it does affect your liver I think it says that on the paper from pharmacy

    I take a natural pill daily to help my liver to function better and it helps
