have you had this side effect?

ive been taking citalopram for just over 2 months now i think, and since day 1 of taking it i have had very strong hayfever symptoms. i never used to get hayfever before taking it.
my eyes are so itchy and bloodshot, my nose is always blocked or running, i have sneezing fits etc.
anyone else experienced this? :huh:

hiya Alfie,Yes i know exactly what you mean i also have to blow my nose more often, sneeze more, and feel they affect my sinuses. i now take an antihistemine especially since the weather has got hotter, hope this helps:)

It could be the Citalopram, or you could have developed hayfever. It can come on even if you've never suffered before. I only started suffering from hayfever a couple of years ago.
