I am currently going thru withdrawals for celexa 40mg. I have been on this dose for about a year now. Unfortunatly I am required to go cold turkey because i cannot afford these pills and the symptoms are pure hell. I am sure that if you decrese slowly in the smallest incraments over a resonable period of time, you should be able to have no problems. Just be glad that you are not on Effexor, I was taking
37.5mg for 2 months and was switched to celexa without any weaning or other precautionary measures. The side effects caused me to be rehospitalized.
