Muscle ache on citalopram

Posted , 2 users are following.

I have been on citalopram for the third time now and am approaching 6 weeks. Each time I do get lots of side effects and these in the main have lessened but I am experiencing alot of muscle or body aches particularly in my wrists and forearms. Its quite painful and I find myself focusing on this which then obviously increases my anxiety.

Any one else has this?

    Hi Melanie, did your muscle ache improve? I've had muscle aches for about a week now, it's terrible, feel like I've been run over!
