hi I'm Beth I have been on celexa for 10 days now, 40 milligrams, the last 4 days I have felt like superwoman which is awesome, but last night and today I just want to lay under a rock and not leave the house. very tired and sleepy. heart rate is up feeling a little Maybe feeling a little anxious. I also take 150 milligrams of Topamax a day which is 50 milligrams 3 times a day. I have been own that for well over a year. they just switched me from lexapro 20 milligrams a day to the celexa 40 milligrams a day. so I'm not sure how much is this I'm feeling is the changing from one medication to another and my body getting readjusted to the new medication or the new medication beginning to work in my body I'm not sure? Any advice?

Hello, Beth! How are you?

It is most likely a combination of both. I've generally found, from my own experiences as well as those of others, these symptoms usually peak out around 21 days and then slowly taper off, until they go away entirely.

If they get severe, it would be best to consult your doctor.

Other side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and weight gain.

Is there anything else I can help with?
