new antidepressant called Celexa (citalpram)

September 1998

Forest Labs and Parke-Davis are marketing a new antidepressant called Celexa (citalopram). It's been used a lot in Europe.

It's another SSRI...similar to Prozac, Zoloft, and Paxil.

Think of Celexa as a "me-too" in effectiveness...a "me-too" in side effects (nausea, sleepiness, sexual dysfunction)...but Celexa has fewer drug interactions to worry about.
