I’m very nervous to take Celexa because I read it can cause seizures. I have had a few seizures in my life but not since I994 but still am very scared. My doctor has reassured me it’s very rare as has the pharmacist. So Just wondered if anyone has had a seizure and at what dose?
Citalopram - Has anyone had a seizure on Celexa?

Hey there, Jackbarks!
Seizures are exceedingly rare: "Rare (less than 0.1%)".
Your doctor is aware of your medical history and has likely determined that the benefits of the medication far outweigh any risk and your pharmacist agrees. I'd make that leap of faith and follow your professional advice.
Take care!
