A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has a new prescription for citalopram. Which of the following statements should the nurse include?
Correct answer
A

Citalopram can cause drowsiness, so bedtime dosing is an option if needed. Appetite changes take time, jaundice isn't a side effect, and stopping abruptly risks relapse.
