Will Taking Citalopram Cause Excessive Thirst During The Night?
I wake every night usually anywhere between 1 am and 4am with a strong thirst , and needing to pee although I drink sufficient water during the day and no more than 2 teas and 1 coffee in the morning. I am on citalopram 20 mgs. Would this be the main cause - the insomnia is affecting my day to day energy levels. I don t have any problems getting to sleep a night just the waking up.
