Avatar n tn hi how long does citalopram take to leave your system.
Avatar f tn I know you are not a doctor, or maybe you are, but how long until you think the Citalopram is out of my system? Thanks!
Avatar f tn You should discuss this with your doctor. Your prozac dosage is very low, so it is probably not that. Nevertheless, what you are feeling is a worry. Looks like the cardiologist will give you the answer. The problem is now you are getting stressed about waiting so long for the appointment, and that is not helping, and stress and anxiety will give you bad palpitations. Try and stay as calm as you can.
Avatar m tn However currently I seem to get shaky as the day goes on, some days are worse than others. How long is this going to last, is there preventative measures I can take? I currently take Celexa for depression but I was shaky before this and the doctor recommended that I increase my dose but it hasn't had any effect on the shaking. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Avatar f tn Your on a low dose and it does take time to get in to your system. Maybe upping it, like your getting ready to do will help more with your anxiety.
Avatar n tn But I think it is a better option can just staying on effexor but you would just have to ride the withdrawals till your system settled down. As prosac is in the same group and you haven't been on effexor long you may not get symptoms, but remember you are still suffering from coming off citalopram.
Avatar f tn t hurt to call your doc and verify that this is normal. You always want to work closely with him on your meds. Take care....

Did you try and fix your problem through therapy, since medication doesn't cure, it only treats symptoms? Because if you tried everything else and nothing else worked, the ill effects of being on a medication long-term whatever they may be, might be worth it compared to a life of increasing anxiety and decreased experiences because of it.
Avatar m tn I would suggest continuing your meds & seeing ur DR. The thing with Citalopram is it takes awhile to build up in your system so it is QUITE possible that it's still there even though you haven't taken it & it's the decreased balance that has you feeling so good. It may be that you are ready for a decrease in the prescription.

He has you on salt pills which I would think is to counteract any issues regarding the sodium. You owe it to yourself to give this a try. There is an adjustment period for the first week or two and then it takes 2-4 weeks for it to reach a full therapeutic level in your system. You won't know how much better you will feel until you try it. If still in doubt...
397118 tn?1219762250 Ok the title says it all lol, How long does marijuana stay in your system? I never did marijuana so don't know is for my nephew he keeps saying he is not doing any and every test is positive and occording to him the last time he use was 5 months ago but every month the test is positive. What do you guys think? is it like he says that it stays in your body for a long time or he is still using?
Avatar f tn I know it is short acting but how long does it stay in your system? Is it 4 or 6 hours? The reason I am asking is sometimes if I have an attack and it helps but by bedtime I might start feeling like I'm going to have another. So I was worndering if it was the xanax wearing off or if I was just still feeling some more anxiety. Thanxs to all.
Avatar n tn Oh, one question... What type of stomach problems? Did you mention the stomach problems to your doctor? Did she think that the stomach problems were because of a panic attack? If the stomach problems are a badly upset stomach, then I would go to Another doctor and let them know that you recently had the gardasil vaccine and you exerienced an upset stomach (mention this first) as well as the other more common side effects that you mentioned.
Avatar n tn Gosh i must say you are mighty helpful and i truly thank you a ton for going out of your way to help me with this issue. Thank you a million.
Avatar m tn I am not sure on that, but the best place to go for that question is your pharmacist- they are really helpful with medication questions.
