Celexa is an antidepressant drug and is used to
treat patients who suffer from depression. It
contains the active ingredient called citalopram.
Citalopram belongs to the group of drugs called
selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).
It works by affecting the chemicals in the brain
that become imbalanced in patients who have
depression. It may not be suitable for everyone,
and therefore it is usually offered on an initial
trial by your doctor. We currently have brand
Lundbeck Celexa (20 mg, 40 mg), Oryx Celexa (30
mg), and generic citalopram (10 mg, 20 mg, 40 mg)
available in stock.
