hi kittycat.....you are taking what in the u.s. is called celexa, and this is a 50/50 mix of two forms of citalopram. there is a drug named escitalopram (lexapro in the u.s.) that is 100% of one of the two forms of citalopram in your med. i am not an expert with this class of substances; however, a number of posters on psychobabble are, and i suggest you hit that forum and look at the posts for celexa and lexapro....hope this helps, and all the best, chemist
