I've been taking 20mg Citalopram for 9 weeks, gone through most of the side effects my doctor upped my dose to 30mg but before that I had noticed a sore throat and tongue. Visit to the dentist and she said clenching teeth is not unusual on AD's but i also had been chewing my tongue.
I saw my doctor yesterday and he checked my throat and glands and said it wasn't showing any signs of infection. I have had pain and soreness on the left side of my throat and tongue for 4 weeks mainly at night. Just would like to know if anybody else has had this problem and could it be the Citalopram?
I'm not feeling much different so far but the doctor said I must give it 6 months before considering any change, as anybody found it take this long to show any improvement in anxiety issues?
TIA
