Hi, I am wondering if anyone out there has:
Jumped from 20mg to 40mg after about 2 months and did they experience any side effects?
and/or..
Do you take Celexa for anxiety/panic and how much do you take to make a good difference?I am currently taking 20mg but pdoc suggested 40 today. Kinda afraid but have a problem with anxiety reoccuring again lately after 2 months. What to do...
Thanks!

> Thanks!I did almost exactly that. I was taking 20 mg for about a month and a half, then I went up to 40 mgs. I have problems with anxiety, and the Celexa was really helping. I did not have any side effects besides weight gain. Perhaps unwisely, I have gone off it due to the weight gain. From my own experience, I would say you have nothing to be afraid of. Good luck.
