For what length of time do celexa (citalopram) side effects last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many possibilities: There are some side effects that are transient and some that last a while. The shorter acting side effects are often effects like nausea or diarrhea. The gastrointestinal system has a lot of serotonin receptors and it is impacted by the introduction of pharmacotherapy that activates those receptors. However, over time these gastrointestinal side effects subside. Some other side effects persist.
