Appetite

Hello my appetite is gone feel sick to my stomach all the time I sleep well but I don't like the weight loss at all. The medicine works for my sleep and anxiety I just wonder how long this will last I miss food!!!

How long have you been on your medacine and what kind are you taking?

I had severe nausea and dry heaves for about a week. I almost stopped taking it but glad I gave it a chance. How long have you had the nausea? 

Hi Darlene how long have you been taking citalopram ?

My appetite went on day 1 of taking it and I've been on it for 11 weeks now. I still have no appetite but I'm managing toast or a sandwich on an evening. I've lost over 2 stone but the weight loss is slowing now.

Hi Darlene

Oh god I know the feeling!! It's really awful - I was like that for a few weeks when I first started citalopram, the low energy was awful but looking back it was good to lose a few pounds I couldn't tell you when but one day I just felt ravenous. It will come. BUT how long have you been taking them? As if it's been longer than I'd say 6 weeks and you still have no appetite it might be worth talking to your doctor.

I do not know if you are taking other medications.

With your tummy, see your GP

Make that appointment

Hi I m on week 9 and trust me citaloparm it's really good

How long did it take for you to feel good? It's been just over 5 weeks for me on 30mg and last week was much better but the last two days I feel more anxious and sad again. Not sure if ups and down are normal and how long it takes to regulate.

Glad you are pleased

Good Luck
