Having Nausea, Dizziness, Feeling Spaced Out, Anxious. Prescribed Citalopram For Anxiety. Causes Vomitting. Suggestions?
Have been prescribe 10mg of citalopram for anxiety but I m highly anxious about taking them. I have a vomit phobia and the thought of nausea scares me so much. I have so much anxiety right now because of nausea, dizziness , and feeling spaced out as I have CFS/ME. Can I take half a pill? But I still worry about the side effects.

Hello,
These might be side effects of the pill.Instead of taking half pill , I would suggest to talk with your doctor and discuss about alternative medicine. Because in case half pill is not sufficient or in future if you need to increase the dose, this pill will not help.
Regards.
