I've been on Citalopram for about 7 weeks now. At the start I had the same experiences as most people - dry mouth, dizziness, nausea, slurred speech etc. However, once these side effects cleared up I began to feel like myself again. Unfortunately, this only lasted for about a fortnight. At my last appointment with my Dr, she wanted to up my dose of 20mg to 40mg. I declined, saying that the dose I was on at the time was working well for me (which it was).
The past week or so I've felt worse than usual. I'm going to make another appointment to see my Dr asap. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this type of experience with Citalopram? If so, was it a case of the drug didn't work for you as an individual or that the dosage was too low?
