The Dr prescribed Cilift 20 mg for me due to post traumatic stress. I am so afraid to use it because of the side effects. What can I use for post traumatic stress, instead of Cilift?

Cilift contains the active ingredient Citalopram, this is a brand available in South Africa and, in light of that fact, I am not sure what else is available there for you to try.

Side effects are always possible with any medication, even over the counter products, however, there is no way to know if you will experience any of them, until you actually try a medication. Not everyone has problems with side effects, some people don't experience any.

Citalopram is an SSRI antidepressant that also helps treat anxiety and its most common side effects can include: nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth and weight changes.
