Citalopram - accidentally took 2 tablets!

[Tryingtobehealthy]

I take 20mg of Citalopram a day but yesterday I accidentally took 2 tablets (no idea how, as they are in a calendar pack!) I feel absolutely fine today and have had no side effects - can I just ignore this or should I mention to GP?

I'm sure it's fine, some people take 40 or even 60mg a day with no problems

[TrinityRhino]

I take 40mg every day
it will be fine nothing to worry about at all

[Tryingtobehealthy]

That's a relief, thanks people!

I wouldn't worry - I used to take 40mg every day. You might feel a little spaced out but not going to do any harm.

I used to take 40mg a day as well. You'll be fine, just more chilled

Guys, remember... just because you feel well with no symptoms, doesn't mean you're fine. It can take 24/48 hours until an overdose can take effect.

I took two as well I think. Are you still okay, @Trytobehealthy??

I am on 40mg Citalopram but this morning I took two, is that dangerous?
Thank you in advance

This has happened me before, with my sertraline 100mg. I got myself in a real panic thinking something was going to happen but I was absolutely fine.
Just keep an eye on how you feel and if concerned, try to seek medical advice but you shouldn't have any problems.

my dose is 30mg you will feel spacey but be fine
