In reply to Question about Celexa, posted by Mary LameBull on October 24, 2000, at 16:10:53
I take Celexa. I'm only an occasional drinker. I had 2 beers (a lot for me) at a reception last week and I did not have any bad reaction. But I wouldn't over do it since alcohol is a depressant. If you have a hard time limiting yourself to one or 2 drinks, you should avoid alcohol all together, especially while on antidepressants. And especially if you have to drive!
> I recently began taking Celexa. A question that I have is in reference to drinking alcoholic beverages while taking this drug. What will happen to me and my body if I drink an alcoholic beverage? I've read all the warnings on internet sites searching for an answer. My doctor did not give me a lot of information on this drug and I was curious of any side effects this may have on me.
