A member asked:
When you stop taking citalopram, how long is it before the side effects start to kick in?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Withdrawal?: Do you mean, when do withdrawal symptoms kick in? If you have been tapered off the medication in a thoughtful way, then you shouldn't experience withdrawal. If you stopped cold turkey, then you may experience withdrawal symptoms after a day or week, depending on the individual.
