Guest guest Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Couls be a tic, however I dont think that Celexa is associated with tics. There are a lot of kids ho have nondescript and transient tic that may go away as she grows. Talk to the pdoc about it. Bonnie > > Lilly stated Celexa two nights ago.

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 My DD did a similar vocal tic. She also twists her neck now. I associate the tics more with anxiety than med. I don't think a tic is enough of a reason to discontinue a med if the med is helping the OCD. Now my DD is grunting so a would trade it for the quieter throat tic of years gone by.

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Research a condition called EPS...it seems that some of your childrens grunting and throat issues may be caused by the meds...(Antipshychotics) I immediately took my son off abilify when I noticed his throat was having spasms and the benadryl didn't help with it...

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Could be a tic, but if it's directly related to the time when you started Celexa, I'd call the doctor and/or pharmacist about it. Anxiety can make tics worse and the Celexa hasn't had enough time to become effective. If there were tics in the past, perhaps you have your answer. Good to ask questions in any event Bonnie > > Lilly stated Celexa two nights ago. Last night she started making this Tsk > sound randomly that I'm wondering if it is a vocal tic?
