I have been on citalopram 20mg since april 2014
For about a week now my anxiety has returned , very similar to the initial side effects i experienced over the first couple of weeks of taking it. Could it be a sign my dose is too high or need to increase it - something i dont really want to do. Also does anyone else experience skin sensations - very difficult to describe but its like slight tingling and a feeling of cold?

Hello, Carolem! How are you feeling?

The skin sensations can be normal and many medications can cause them as side effects. The one I'm on for my blood pressure causes it on my head, anytime I'm in the sun, which is a very strange experience. LOL

If you're anxiety has returned, it most likely means that you need a dosage increase.

The FDA lists the other typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and weight changes.

Is there anything else I can help with?
