Citalopram is an SSRI antidepressant and it can take approximately 4 to 6 weeks, to reach its full effects in the body.

How long is the total time you have been taking them? Generally for the safest results, these medications should be tapered, to prevent withdrawal and rebound effects, but you should check with your doctor to be sure.

I want to clear my name from a drug test that was so wrong. They said I didn't have enough oxy in my system so they only give me methdone. my records say I am a person that seeks drugs. Sent me a letter stating I am not trustworthy and said they would not be my doctor. That dr retired in april. I had been going to the same dr for 28 yrs. and I am seeking drugs..does not even make any sense. loreen
