Citalopram is a SSRI (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor) and belongs to a group of medicines called antidepressants. Depression is linked to a shortage of substances which carry messages in the brain (including Serotonin and Noradrenaline). Citalopram helps to relieve the shortage of these brain messages. Common signs of depression include feelings of worthlessness or deep sadness; difficulty with everyday tasks; sleeping too much or not being able to sleep; feeling anxious; and changes in appetite.

What is Citalopram used for?
Citalopram tablets are used to treat the symptoms of depression and, when you are feeling better, to help prevent these symptoms recurring. Citalopram tablets are also beneficial in relieving symptoms in patients prone to panic attacks. Treatment for depression is usually continued for at least six months and for panic disorder for at least three months. It may take a while before you start to feel better. It is important to take Citalopram every day and not to stop taking it unless your doctor tells you to. If you do, your symptoms may come back.
Citalopram can be taken any time of the day with or without food. The tablets should be swallowed whole without chewing and with plenty of fluid. This medicine is not recommended for use in children or adolescents (under the age of 18). This medicine can be taken by elderly patients. Patients with kidney or liver problems may be given a lower dose of Citalopram, between 20 and 40mg per day. It may take several weeks before you feel any benefit from these tablets. This is normal for this type of medicine. The duration of treatment is individual, usually at least 6 months. Continue to take your tablets for as long as your doctor recommends. Do not stop taking them even if you begin to feel better, unless you are told to do so by your doctor. Never change the dose of your medicine without talking to your doctor first. The underlying illness may persist for a long time and if you stop your treatment too soon your symptoms may return.
