Just started carvedilol a few days ago. also started citalopram. is it safe to take these two together?

Yes: It is safe to take the two drugs, the combination may increase beta blocker levels which could cause low blood pressure, a slow heart rate, and possible a-v block. The prescibing physican should re-evaluate you in several weeks, and sooner if you become symptomatic.

Yes, it's safe but..: You need to watch your blood pressure. Citalopram could slow down the metabolism of the carvedilol. In that case you'd need to lower the dose. Talk to your doctor about it.

Carvedilol: Probably no problem with the combination. If you have CHF which is the usual Carvedilol indication, the citalopram could be a problem with that diagnosis however.
