I was recently prescribed Citalopram 40mg tablets to help with my depression. I've been taking them for a week now, and I'm noticing some side effects. I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced similar issues. I've been feeling pretty drowsy and have a dry mouth most of the time. I've also had some trouble sleeping at night. Are these common side effects, or should I talk to my doctor about them? Has anyone else had any weird side effects that weren't listed in the literature? I appreciate any advice or shared experiences!

I've been prescribed Citalopram 20mg for my depression and I'm a bit nervous about starting it. I've heard it can take a few weeks to feel the full benefits, but I'm also worried about the potential side effects. Has anyone had any success with this medication? I'd love to hear about your experiences, both good and bad. Also, any tips on how to manage side effects would be greatly appreciated!
