I take atenelol 25mg 2 a day for pressure and celexa (citalopram) 10mg 1 a day. can i have some red wine and how much. ?

None is best: It is best not to drink alcohol with either of those medications. Alcohol can make depression worse and elevate blood pressure. I noticed that you are also taking NSAIDs and that can also raise your blood pressure. If you do drink I would definitely suggest that you never consume more than one small (4oz.) glass of wine at a time.
