What
you should know about Celexa: Celexa belongs
to the family of medicines called SSRIs (S elective
S erotonin R euptake I nhibitors).
Celexa will have been prescribed to you by your doctor
to relieve your symptoms of depression.
What you Should Tell Your
Doctor Before Taking Celexa:
- All your medical conditions, including heart problems,
history of seizures, liver or kidney disease, diabetes.
- Any medications (prescription or nonprescription)
which you are taking or have taken within the last
14 days, especially a monoamine oxidase inhibitor
(e.g., phenelzine, tranylcypromine, moclobemide or
selegiline), or any other antidepressant, lithium,
tryptophan, or cimetidine.
- If you ever had an allergic reaction to any medication.
- If you are pregnant or thinking of becoming pregnant,
or if you are breast-feeding.
- Your habits of alcohol consumption.
When Not to Use Celexa:
- You should not be taking Celexa if you are pregnant
or breast-feeding.
- Do not take Celexa if you are allergic to it, or
to any of the components of its formulation (for list
of components see the section “What
Does Celexa Contain”).
- Stop taking Celexa and contact your doctor immediately
if you experience an allergic reaction or any severe
side effect.
How
to Take Celexa:
- It is important that you take Celexa exactly as
your doctor has instructed.
- Usually your doctor will prescribe 20 mg/day, which
you will take as a single dose either in the morning
or in the evening. This dose may be increased. Never
change the dose of Celexa unless your doctor tells
you to.
- You should continue to take Celexa even if you do
not feel better, as it may take several weeks for
your medication to work. Improvement may be gradual.
- Continue to take Celexa for as long as your doctor
recommends it. Do not stop taking your tablets even
if you begin to feel better, unless you are told to
do so by your doctor. Your doctor may tell you to
continue to take Celexa for several months. Continue
to follow your doctor's instructions.
- Swallow the tablets whole with a drink of water.
Do not chew them. Celexa can be taken with or without
food.
- If you miss a dose, do not worry. Do not take the
missed tablet(s) - just take the next dose when it
is due.
Precautions
When Taking Celexa:
- Usually Celexa does not affect patients' ability
to carry out normal daily activities. However, you
should not drive a car or operate machinery until
you are reasonably certain that Celexa does not affect
you adversely.
- Avoid drinking alcohol while taking Celexa.
Possible
Celexa Side Effects:
- Celexa may cause unwanted effects (side effects).
These may include nausea, dry mouth, somnolence, increased
sweating, tremor, diarrhea and sexual problems. Other
effects may include dizziness and sleep disturbance.
- Side effects are often mild and may disappear after
a few days. If they are troublesome or persistent,
or if you develop any other unusual side effects while
taking Celexa, please consult your doctor.
What to do in Case of Overdose:
If you have accidentally taken too much Celexa contact
your doctor or nearest hospital emergency department
immediately, even if you do not feel sick. If you go
to the doctor or the hospital, take the Celexa container
with you.
