Busy tapering off citalopram (celexa). can i take ambien during celexa withdrawal?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Maybe: In the US Ambien is a controlled medication used for insomnia. Mixing medications without your prescribers knowledge is not recommended. It does go on. So I understand why you want advice. Can you ask your doctor for best practices and safety?
