Celexa????

I was on Celexa 40 mg  and felt it was working well.  Citalopram at doses > 40 mg per day could potentially cause a dangerous abnormality in the electrical activity of the heart. The abnormality is called QT prolongation.  My Dr. received info to not prescribed this medication at doses higher than 20 mg for people over 60 years of age so I was switched to a different med.

I was started on 20mg about 2-3 months ago.  I just started upping to 30mg this week, as it wasn't doing anything at 20.  I haven't noticed any side effects, but my anxiety symptoms vary week to week anyhow, so its hard to tell.
