Tiredness?

03 Aug

hi all,

i just started taking celexa. at first i was getting juiced from the relatively low dosage i was prescribed. as the dosage has increased, i
have become increasingly more tired in the morning, making it difficult to arise. also, i have trouble falling asleep at night. is this common, and what suggestions do any of you have to remedy this annoyance?

    Hello amazonson. Maybe you need to change the time of day you take your
    med.Morning to night ,or vice versa?

    Hi Amazon: It took me a while to find any
    information on Celexa (also called Citalopram). This is a brand new anti-depressant in the US. All
    anti-depressants have some side effects and sleep problems aren’t uncommon. However, it’s kind of hard to fight depression when you’re tired from lack of sleep. Talk to your dr.
    and see if maybe a slightly higher dose will knock
    the sleep problems or if another type of drug would
    work better. I’m glad you wrote about this drug. It’s
    my understanding that new anti-depressants are
    coming on the market all the time. It’s good to be able
    to keep up with them and know the good and bad
    points of each.
