A member asked:
Is it normal to have diarrhea after taking very 1st dose of 10mg of celexa (citalopram)? took at 7pm. had diarrhea at 6am
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very common, alas: Transient diarrhea happens after one starts medications of this class. Most times the GI upset dissipates; if it doesn't, the rx trial may be a 'bust' despite any efficacy it provides.
