I'm on 20mg, and also take vitamin B complex, Omega 3, magnesium and calcium, and Inositol, plus some probiotic capsules (for IBS).
As I understand it, you can't take valerian or 5-HTP while on SRRI's, but vitamins should be absolutely fine.

It's a sort of B vitamin, which is naturally found in fluid in the spinal cord (I think) - apparently, in people suffering from depression/anxiety, it is reduced.Originally Posted by nineteen

It's meant to be really effective for anxiety.(have a look on the natural remedies forum).

I spoke to a pharmacist earlier who checked his drug interactions book and said citalopram and valerian together werent a problem.

According to antidepressant-online.com, valerian interacts with citalopram. I have read this on a number of websites. Supposedly, taking the two together can increase feelings of depression in those who are depressed.
My recommendation would be to avoid valerian while taking cit. If you must try it, take HALF the normal dose.
