When Is The Best Time To Take Celexa?

thanks. I take celexa for anxiety. I take it before sleep and fall asleep along with my blood pressure medicine. But in the morning I am not very alert and in the afternoon I get really tired and sleepy. I have tried a few anti-depressants in the morning and it did not work for me... should I just start taking it in early evening?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It may be best to use it in the early evening as you suggested because by the morning, you should be alert.

You may also need to determine if there are any other traditional or herbal medications that you are using that are affecting your level of alertness.

I hope this helps
