Re: what time of day do you take it

[Guest guest]

I take mine at night, always did this. M

I've always taken it in the morning. As for the side affects, try giving it 2

weeks. If you still are having side affects, definitely contact you doctor and

discuss it with them.

I started out on lexapro and then was switched to celexa. My pdoc said only one

tiny ingredient was changed in celexa to market under lexapro - it was a patent

deal when the patent on celexa ran out. I take mine at night. The only side

effect I see is less libido - but mine wasn't ever strong in the first place. I

currently doubled my celexa dose as my bi-polar daughter getting married on this

Sat. (4th) was in the hospital last week due to her bi-polar meds needing to be

changed. We have had a terrible couple of weeks and I needed to feel calmer. I

feel calmer but will go back to 40mg celexa once the wedding is over.

Morning since I had trouble sleeping when taking it at night.

I take it in the morning because when I first started taking it, it felt like it

would run out before it was time to take again. now I am on 40mg

I didn't have any side effects with either Celexa or Lexapro.

I took 20 mg. about 4:30 pm after I paid CVS....NO samples today.

[Guest guest]

Thank you all for your input. I think I will try the morning and hope

this one helps instead of increasing the anxiety. My dr did say that

Lexapro is a mirror image of Celexa - not sure what that really means,

but I will give it a try.

>>Celexa

Well if I run out maybe I'll take some old Celexa I see in my cabinet.

I think they say 40 mg., not sure.
