Increasing citalopram dose from 10mg to 20mg?

[mumofjust1]

Does anyone have any experience?

I suffer with anxiety, panic attacks and depression. I am currently taking 10mg and due to an increase in my symptoms my Gp has advised me to increase to 20mg.

Any thoughts would be much appreciated,

Thanks x

I increased from 10 to 20 and found i didn't have any problems with regard to side effects etc. But the increase did make huge difference to how I was feeling, ie much better, normal(ish) again etc, and i was able to stick at 20mg quite happily with no further increases needed :)

I changed 2 weeks ago and it hasn't had any adverse affects still have my down moments though but not as many.

Thanks for your replies x

You've made me much less apprehensive - think I'll start tonight
