> Anyone currently taking Celexa that has had their dosage increased? I'm taking 40mg/day and has noticed that when I have accidently doubled my dosage I feel less anxious and depressed. Both of which are the reasons I'm taking celexa now. Any thoughts are appreciated.
Just to add my two cents, I'm currently taking Celexa at 40 mgs a day
I did research before taking it and found, as Pam indicated, that
the manufacturer did studies and determined that there was no improvement
at 60 mgs over 40. You may want to talk to your doc abtou it though -- studies are
statistical constructs and never say anthing about what will happen in a
particular individual. I've had good results with it, and haven't
had any significant side effects, with the exception of compulsive
yawning for a couple of hours after I take it. Embarrasing sometimes, but
not a real problem.Good luck
