  • DS I feel your pain ! Have been on this poison for 6 months and have had every side effect listed . I take the following but please check with your doctor first.

    I have been prescribed Citalopram for hot flushes

    I take magnesium 150mgs twice daily (Lamberts) this helps with the joint/ bone pain .

    I take Calcium &. Vit D at lunchtime ( cannot be taken at same time as Magnesium) 

    I take Vit B12 for hair & nails 

    If nothing else please try Magnesium it’s really effective for muscle /bone pain 

    Good luck !
