Citalopram hbr 10 mg was prescribed to me because of stress and to help me sleep. Is that what this drug is for? Help ! Thanks Bob ## Citalopram is an SSRi antidepressant, it may cause some drowsiness as a side effect and, as to the stress, it does help some people with some anxiety and similar issues. Basically, your doctor is allowed to prescribe a medication according to their knowledge and experience of what they've found it will help with. Learn more Citalopram details here. When they do that, it's called off-label use and, in such cases, the best thing you can do is to try it and see if it helps you. If it doesn't, then let your doctor know. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Yes you sound the same as me. I have been taking 10mg for 3.5 weeks now and feel great...

they are replacing my lexapro 10mg for this ## Why are they changing my Lexapro l0mg. to citalopram hbr 20 mgs. what does citalpram used for. ## What does the Hbr mean? ## Citalopram is also an antidepressant, a generic for Celexa. HBR just designated the type of drug salt. Some of the most common side effects include: drowsiness, nausea, dry mouth and sweating. ## They just replaced my Lexapro 10 milg, to the same drug Citalopram 20 mills. They told me it was the generic to Lexapro. Wrong!! I took this med, and the next day felt like a zombie. Nothing like Lexapro, and I won't take it again. Now my doc has to fight to put me back on my Lexapro. I feel this is rediculous to just change someones meds, saying its a generic, and having these horrible effects. ## Also I do not have depr...

Can I Break A Citalopram Hbr 20 Mg Tablet In Half? ## I have been on Cit for about 6 years 10mg. the great news is it made me feel great took away all that angst and low mood. BUT I have gained about 2 stone and its made my IBS terrible. its wierd because i always saw Cit as a cure and would look for other reasons why i was getting bigger, having bad stomach. it was only when I started a serious diet and had lost nothing after 4 weeks (while my daughter on same diet lost ten pounds) that i started to research reasons. Theres no question its this horrible little drug and i am furious that my doctor never thought to see if Cit was a cause. over many many forums the same theme is coming thru, doctors fobbing off patients that Cit doesnt cause weight gain and there should be no withdrawal s...

I am taking citalopram HBR 10 mg and am experiencing swelling of my legs and arms. Is this a possible side effect? ## Hi eileen, I can't find any information that claims "swelling of the arms and legs" to be a side effect. However, I did read that allergic reactions to this medication can cause swelling of the face, tongue, eyes or mouth. Everyone reacts differently to prescription medication so it's possible that the problems you are experiencing could be the result of this drug. Nonetheless, do not stop taking Citalopram HBR without first talking to your healthcare provider. I hope this helps!

I got prescribed IC citalopram hbr 20 mg and my bf just got prescribed citalopram no IC or hbr? what is the difference? ## I wants to know what is the difference between s-citalopram and citalopramhbr? I have been taking nexito-20mg for last 7years.But I am not 100% satisfied with the results.Hence I wants to know if I will shift to citalopram-hbr will it be more helpful for me?because Citalopram-gbr has doubled of s-citalopram as far as highest dose is concerned.i.e-up to 40mg. ## There is no difference, other than in how that particular pharmacy or manufacturer is describing their medication. They are the same thing and treat the same things. Citalopram is a generic for Celexa, this is an antidepressant. Common side effects may include: nausea, headache, dizziness and dry mouth. You c...
