Before you use Celexa, tell your doctor if you have other medical conditions such as a history of a bleeding or blood clotting disorder, liver or kidney disease, narrow-angle glaucoma, seizures or epilepsy, bipolar disorder, or a history of drug abuse or suicidal thoughts or actions. 

All antidepressants, including Celexa, have a black box warning, which is the strongest warning required by the FDA.

However, all people—of any age—who take antidepressants must be closely monitored for changes in behavior and suicidal thoughts or actions.

You should also avoid consuming alcohol while using Celexa.

Tell your doctor about all the medications you are using including prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Ask your doctor if he or she has any concerns before using a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen while using Celexa. Celexa interacts with a number of medications, so it is best to check with your doctor to be sure the combination of medications you take is safe. 

Only use Celexa how it was prescribed by your healthcare provider. Do not use larger or smaller amounts of Celexa than your doctor recommends. Do not suddenly stop taking Celexa as you could have unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. You should get medical advice from your doctor on how to safely stop using this antidepressant.
