Citalopram

Why would coming off citalopram stop my annoying cough?

Coughing is listed as a side-effect of Citalopram.

It would appear that one of the annoying side effects of Citalopram is a cough.
Now if this is the case with you, then sopping the tablets may relive the cough.

Jo,..is it listed as a side effect for all SSRIs. cos Mags needs to be given a replacement immediately and not left without anything :(
Have you been given something to replace it Mags?

Sqad, I'm guessing Mags doesn't want to relive the cough...;)

..listed as 'Incidence not known' for Paroxetine

[scorpiojo]

..the same for Sertraline

That's good Jo.
Mags, the doc could just switch you to one of those without going through a withdrawal,...
