Hi Tina
I have been on Citropram for about 9 months and I still get hot flushes with them that is the part I dont like because I start to panic when I get one coming on and make it worse

Thanks for the reply Joan60

Makes me feel abit better now knowing that u have them too
It makes me start to panic when I feel one coming on

Thanks again

Tina :)

Citalopram did this for me too, I'd wake soaked in the night, I switched to mirtazapine, it makes me sweat heavily also, nowhere near as bad as with citalopram.
It's really difficult isnt it, your taking a pill to make you mentally better and it gives you side effects that make you feel physically ill.
I hope you start feeling better soon.
