I have celexa 10 mgs I was told to take it at night by my Dr. The pharmacy told me to take it in the morning. Its friday night and my DR. isn't available, what should I do? She also gave me clonazepham to take at night. I am so confused. Anyone on celexa? and did it help with your anxiety?

hi spun2tie,

I take Celexa, I take 20 mgs in the morning, and I take ativan, I always take them together, and it works for me, Cexela, helps with Panic and Anxiety, my anxiety isn't to bad anymore, I've been on Celexa almost a yr. If your Dr told you to take it at night, then I would for the time being until you can call your Dr. Hope this helps

Hey, Spun -
I've been on Celexa. I'm certainly no doctor but I think the pharmacist may have mentioned the morning because sometimes taking meds at night will affect your ability to sleep soundly. Why don't you call your pharmacy (or any 24hr) and ask? They'll certainly be able to tell you the rationale for either time. Make sure you mention you also have the other scrip.

For most people, it takes a couple of weeks before you'll feel the benefits. It doesn't take the hard stuff away but it should give you enough of a boost so that you can figure things out.

Hang in there! Good luck.
