Hi I'm on week 5 now nearly 6 & have started suffering with a buzzing head & headache & tight sore throat in the afternoons & evenings. Also insatiable thirst all day. Does anyone else have these & is it 'normal'?
Please any advice appreciated x
Hi Becky,
I was on Citalopram and came off of them after about 2 weeks. I got the "buzzing head" feeling and felt so off balance I had no choice but to stop taking them.
I think it's best that you see your Doctor and see is there's something else you can take instead.
Hope that helps. X
Did you change to anything else? Fluoxetine?
I changed to Mitzaplam (sp?) 7.5mgs to start with then up to 15 mgs. I did some homework on it first and thought it would suit me and it does.
The only side effect is giving you a big appetite.... Other than that, for me, personally, it seems to be doing the trick.
Have you been doing any research on any other meds?
Are you taking them for anxiety? I hadn't looked at anything else. I had Fluoxetine years ago & that worked until I had a reaction to it. Perhaps I should consider that again. I am seeing the Dr on Thursday. Thanks for your help x
I'm taking them for both anxiety and depression. Maybe you should ask your Doctor about it on Thursday. If you've had a reaction to the Fluoxetine then maybe your body got used to it and began to reject it. Let me know how you get on on Thursday. Good luck. X
