Return to Anti-depressants that Stopped Working
Depression & Anxiety | Last Active: Oct 24, 2016 | Replies (39)Comment receiving replies
I'm just curious. I was treated for depression( CITALOPRAM 20 MG) years ago, and then stopped taking the medication when I didn't seem to need it. I was fine without it for years. It seems that aging and dementia is bringing it back. Should I try it again?

I would talk to your doctor about what would be best!

That would be up to you and your doctor. I only asked because I know that some doctors are retrying medication that stopped working in the hopes that after a long period off of it that it would work again. I was interested to see if it had worked for others. My doctor tried re-prescribing sertraline that had stopped working effectively for me. You can always ask your doctor about retaking citalopram and see what your doctor says. Certainly if you are feeling depressed I would suggest talking with your doctor about it.
