I'm being treated for depression with celexa (citalopram). I have been taking augmentin for bronchitis and had also done some over-the-counter sudafed and Afrin for congestion. Also, I have been stealing my daughter's ritalin, grinding it up, and snorting it. Last week I had a few angry outbursts. Could the interaction of these drug have resulted in the anger or does celexa have those side effects alone? I'm on 20 mg.

Celexa side effects are: nausea, drowsiness, sweating,tremor,feeling of numbness,dizziness, dry mouth, insomnia, and men may have some sexual problems.

Celexa is one of the least interactive medications in this group, MAOIs are about the only thing they interact with.

I would say the cocktail you are serving yourself is probably the culprit. If you need more help than the celexa please ask you doctor, my boy was on ritalin and so I know your daughter needs her medication and early refills will cause problems.

I got the celexa info at: virtualdrugstore.com/depression/citalopram

Also check Healthsquare.co and/or DrKoop.com for more information on all these medications, You don't want to make a fatal mistake.
