Propranolol/Citalopram/Alcohol

[mort1874]

I am now on Citalopram which has turned my life around, best thing I have ever done was give in and take these. I am now slowly weaning off the beta blockers propranolol as well which is great as it means I will only be taking Citalopram once per day and that's it. Does anyone have any experience with both of these and alcohol? Would really like to try a few drinks, I know it can make anxiety worse but I miss having a few beers.

I take Prop and have been prescribed Citalopram for the 4trh time, terrified as it gives me panic attacks at first. I am sure the odd drink won't harm as long as you don't over do it. Know lots of peeps on AD's who have a drink and are fine...but in moderation as alcohol as you say can make things worse and stop AD's from working I have been told. xxx

Hi there
Interested to hear how long the cit took to work? I am 6 weeks in and do not really feel any different.
