Citalopram Vs Benzodiazepine
UpdatedIs citalopram (208 1g) a benzodiazepine and does it work the same as lorazepam? Can you take citalopram for depression?

No and no! Citalopram is an SSRI antidepressant, so it is not a benzodiazepine and does not work the same.
The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, mood changes, and weight changes.
Is there anything else I can help with?
No, thanks very much for your help.But,of course people say things about meds and they don't know what they're talking about. I found some of my old meds lying around (citalopram)and I was just wondering what to do with them.Thanks,again
