Hi
On friday i upped my dose of citroplam to 20mg i had bad side effects to it i became more depressed than ever i also became more suicdial, i became agrophobic and was unable to leave my bedroom for 3 days my panic attacks became worse. I had just had enough. It was a bank holiday so when it came to tuesday i new i had to go to work so i got up and went.
On friday id had a cough but thought nothing of it and just carried on as the week went on it got worse my chest became tighter.
By this morning i felt really ill and my chest felt tight i got to work every time i coughed i went really pale every one kept asking me was i ok i just felt really shakey and as if i was going to pass out. So i went to the doctors he asked me lots of silly questions he then gave me amixcilan.
I asked him if there was any side effects to me taking them with citroplam he said there shouldnt b.

Hi South

I am sorry to hear that you have an infection and I hope the meds will clear it up soon.

Personally I would leave taking the meds till after the wedding so that you are not worrying about any interaction with Citalopram.

I can't say I know anything about taking the 2 together but if doc said it was ok then I am sure it is.

You could start on them on Sunday instead and at least the wedding will be ok for you then.

Just a thought.

Hi South,
I am glad you went to the doctors again, and got sorted about your chest, it will stop you from worrying. I would do like Nic says and wait until after Saturday to start your antibiotic's if it is going to worry you. Well done for making it back to work on Tuesday too.
Youre doing well
Take care

Three is no interaction between these two meds . But if you do atke it - go easy on alcohol ...that can react with antibiotics
