A member asked:

Is blurred vision, dizziness, and anxiety while driving a side effect from taking celexa?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not common: Anything that begins coincident with starting a new meds is likely to be related, tins is not a common SE, but certainly might be related, call prescriber . I would stop the celexa, if the SE go away readily after stopping it is a SE. if not , still need to address with prescriber
