Same as before?: I am puzzled why you don't just take it the same way you took it the first two times in your life? I am a strong advocate for keeping things the same unless there is a good reason to change. Why risk it?

Celexa (citalopram): Celexa (citalopram) can be taken in the morning or evening, depending on what your response to it is. You have this information from your previous experience. The most important thing might be to take it at the time of day (or night) you're most likely to remember to take it. Best wishes.
