A member asked:

Third day of celexa 20mg. feeling drowsy, is this a permanent side effect? also, what is the risk for seratonin syndrome?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

SideEffect Of Celexa: It is a common side effect of celexa and will go away after the pill is discontinued.So it is not permanent.Risk of Seratinin Syndrome is low if you are only taking celexa.The greatest risk of serotonin syndrome is when you are taking two or more drugs and/or supplement together that influence Serotoni.There is a big list of other drugs like dextromethorphan,Traxadone,Buspar,Cymbalta and few other
