I've been prescribed to citalopram and am still reducing my dosage of clonazepam(due to seizures). Is it safe to take the two together or should I wait until I'm completely off the clonazepam? I have no allergies that I'm aware of. My doctor was super busy and I forgot to ask if I should stop the clonazepam. Any help is appreciated.
I am on citalopram 10mg and xanax .25 four times a day. I have a med check on wed with my doc, though I may still call today.
My doctor prescribed me nortriptyline and citalopram together, and people I know in the medical community tell me this is a bad combo, that they shouldnt be prescribed together. Is this correct?
I take a clonazepam at night for restless and OTC unison and I cannot drive in the morning because I fall asleep. I am 85 I sleep till about 4:00 is it the medicines I take. I never had this before. I had a complete blood test, I Do not know how to handle this, Is it the sleeping pill or clonazepam.
This is one of the problems of doctors, especially general practitioners. They just don't understand these meds. Not even most psychiatrists understand them, but you have a better chance than with a general doc. I would never again go off a med without first questioning thoroughly my psychiatrist about his or her knowledge of how to manage putting people on and taking people off these very difficult meds, and Paxil is the worst of them all for this.
hi i am in the uk and my psychiatrist is unwilling to prescribe clonazepam. its the only thing that helps me with my anxiety. is it really that unsafe to take it for a long time? i read on other forums that people take it for years.
today i was given clonazepam 0.
I've been on Effexor XR 150 for 5 yrs. Ins. won't pay for it now. When I go off
of it I get these (electrical zaps, zings) in my ears and head. Is this what you mean by head zaps? I had to go from Effexor right to Citalopram 20mg. It's been 2 days on Citalopram and I am starting to hear these head zings. Should I
ask for a larger dose or increase # of times I take it a day?
I can't function with these zings going on.

He took me off the blood pressure meds and prescribed me citalopram. I am now on 20mgs of citalopram and 0.25mg clonazepam. I however still feel my pulse all the time, all over my body. And everytime i go to check my blood pressure i have an anxiety attack. Yesterday my first reading was 160/60 HR of 145 and then after 5 times it went down to 122/75 with HR of 88. So my questions are: why did my ekg say possible biatrial enlargment and the echo came back normal?
VE BEEN TAKING 40MG OF CITALOPRAM IN THE AM ... AND 1 MG OF CLONAZEPAM AT NIGHT TO HELP WITH SLEEP ALONG WITH 10MG OF MELATONIN.
13 years ago, I suffered from anxiety and panic attacks and my doctor put me on clonazepam. Eventually it was combined with Effexor, which is an antidepressant. In years to follow, the dosage of clonazeam got higher and higher until I was up to 4mgs per day. What I didn't realize was that I had just masked the problem and that I was entering a world that I had no control over.
i am currently taking 20mg citalopram, i suffer with server back problems and im usually prescribed naproxen 250mg which help with the pain. Am i able to take my naproxen with my citalopram? as i am currently lots of pain and unsure what can take.
In January 2011, I noticed some of my old habits returning, some of the shakiness and difficulty concentrating. I made an appointment with a therapist and they prescribed 30Mg Citalopram and 1Mg Lorazepram.
Things weren't improving. I was becoming more depressed and was experiencing intention tremors. (Typing this is a chore.
is generally used to taper off from benzos with shorter half lives, including clonazepam, (18-50 hrs). Clonazepam has a medium half life when compared with short acting benzos such as Xanax, (6-12 hours).
Best wishes.
