Citalopram Reviews

I started citalopram a year ago and it takes time but it does work. I take 40 mg a day, and life has gotten better. OK, I do admit, you will be a little forgetful and slow, but that is what it does. If you are high anxiety, like me, it will slow you down. It calms you down and if you embrace it just right you CAN make the drug work in your own way and fitting in your own lifestyle. But remember, IT DOES TAKE TIME. You'll see.

Medications in this class generally take a month or more to reach their full effectiveness, for most people.

AS to being forgetful and slow, this DOES NOT happen to everyone, medications can affect everyone in different ways. So, while some may experience this as a side effect, not everyone does.

Thank you, however, for providing your experience and information about this medication.

I am 21 year old, I had a heart transplant almost 5 years ago and I have been married for almost 4 years. All I want is to stop being sick all the time so I can enjoy my life with my wonderful husband who I love very much. And I have been really upset because I feel like its all taking away because of it. So my transplant coordinator insist I try Citalopram. I started taking it about 8 days ago. My husband says it seems to calm me down, I can tell a slight change in how I feel each morning when I get up. I usually feel a little different until I take it. My mouth has been really dry sense about 3rd or 4th day. The only thing that really bothers me about it is if I'm trying to fix something/hook something up, I give up on it easy.
