I have to get my prescriptions in chewable form and both of what I am on do not come that way. One is an antidepressant and the other birth control. What other experiences and fixes are others having? My surgery is in January.

my PCP looked up all my prescriptions to make sure they were crushable, and told me about one that was not (also an antidepressant). i spoke to my psychiatrist who prescribed the med (and who did my psych eval) and he wrote me a script for a different version of the med that was crushable (it's not time released).

tell the person who prescribed the med for you, they will be able to help.

My surgeon said if it's the size of a m&m its ok to swallow.

Ok..I found out I was diabetic about 3 months ago, I told the Doctor I didn't want to go on meds just yet until after the surgery...my sugar was 156...at the same time she prescribed Wellbutrin for my anxiety....as it turns out..I was having side effects with the Wellbutrin and it was not working..so today I went back and she did my EKG for medical clearance for my surgery on the 24th and I told her about the wellbutrin...so she prescribed Celexa 20, and she also wanted to check my sugar level and did...it was 166...she was so adamant about putting me on meds, said if I don't get it lowered the Doctor might not do the surgery.

Has anyone ever taken Celexa and does it cause bad side effects, when is the best time to take it...she said take in morning..but if it causes sleepiness I can't..I have to work.

Also the Metformin is free at Publix <----- if it's free...it's for me

I'm on a generic form of celexa. It doesn't come in chewable form though. I like it but have been on it 2+ years. I didn't have any side effects and wasn't sleepy. I hated Wellbutrin. It gave me more anxiety!

I have a call into my family doctor to see what we can do.
