"Do I have any adverse effects with citalopram?"

It is possible to experience side effects such as headaches, nausea, and diarrhea with citalopram. These side effects are common but usually temporary. It is recommended to take the medication with food to help reduce nausea and diarrhea. Anxiety may also occur at the beginning of treatment or when changing doses. If these side effects are intolerable, it may be worth discussing with your pharmacist about adjusting the dose, even temporarily. This will allow for close monitoring and keep your doctor informed. If you have any other questions or concerns, feel free to ask for guidance.
