Citalopram hydrobromide (Celexa®) is a medication often used for treating depression. It is a type of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor that works by balancing the levels of serotonin (a chemical in the brain that becomes unbalanced in people with depression). Clinical studies show that not only does citalopram improve symptoms of depression; it also reduces the chance of relapse. Before your healthcare provider prescribes this antidepressant, make sure he or she is aware if you epilepsy, liver problems, or kidney disease.
