i am wondering! hmm! when i wake up i feel like crap! i take my escitalopram (cipralex) on a mornin and i take 10mg which is average dose..it is different to citalopram cos i kno u can take 40mg.

Is anyone elso on this medication and do u think i wake up feelin like crap cos it has wore off over the day? I really dont kno many ppl on this medication and i kno off workin in the pharmacy not many ppl are prescribed it. I was wondering if anyone knows anyfin about it?

heya, citalopram was the last medication I was on

I was told it was a prozac related anti-depressent drug which doubled as treatment for anxiety

all round I didn't feel that great when I was on it for about 8 months or so until I just decided to stop taking them cause they didnt seem to be helping me much

havent had any medication at all for about 14 months now and feel about the same now as I did then but Im sure it works for some people or they wouldnt bother prescribing it

sorry I couldnt be more help than that

i had been on citalopram for about 5 months..i fort it wasnt working so i just stopped them and ended up virtually having a breakdown.

i am now on escitalopram...in the leaflet it is especially for social anxiety and panic attacks...i really dont kno the difference between that and citalopram tho other than citalopram is more widely prescribed and escitalopram has less side effects and no weight gain
