Is prozac together with citalopram a good combination for depression/ anxiety ?

No. Side effects could be dangerous. Use only one at a time. Please talk to your doctor if your symptoms are too much/many!

Being drugs from the same class, SSRI’s they are not commonly used together. If so prescribed, make sure you understand the reason your prescriber felt you needed to take both of them.
