Hi I would speak to your doctor as I recently found out you can't take valerian (the anxiolytic ingredient of Kalms) with citalopram, and I assume you can't take it with any other antidepressant either.

i contacted them about cipralex and they said know because kalms goive you a simular effect so i wouldnt recommend it, if you are concerned you could ask ur doctor he may even other you a safer alternative

Hello,
What about rescue remedy, it's meant to be good before tests and fear like of flying. Not sure if it interracts with anything but i know it's pretty natural and safe to use otherwise and it's quite fast acting unlike kalms which take a few weeks to work. I use it but i don't take medication at the moment so it might be worth checking before you try. Best wishes x
