Hello. I receive daily 20 drops of Seropram (40mg Citalopram) every night. Is the pill better absorbed or not? Should I ask my doctor to prescribe me pills (40 mg citalopram again)?

Did the doctor give a reason for prescribing drops versus pills? Pills seems to be the norm so thinking there must be some reason.

Drops and pills were found to be fairly similar. Drops are more for the people that have problems swallowing a pill and thus take the drops.
If the drops aren’t a hassle and work for you? Then keep going with them or switch to pills if you’d prefer that. In terms of how the act, speed and half life: fairly equal. This is the article I found. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/11192143/ __________________ Tic-Tac |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
