Generic of celexa?

What’s the generic name for Celexa?

Celexa’s generic name is citalopram.

Is there a generic version of Celexa available?

Yes. Since Celexa is citalopram, patients are typically able to use generic citalopram tablets instead of brand-name Celexa (availability depends on the country and specific strength/formulation).

What’s the difference between Celexa and generic citalopram?

In most cases, generic citalopram is the same active ingredient as Celexa and is intended to have the same effect, but products can differ in:
- manufacturer
- tablet strength and shape
- inactive ingredients (fillers, dyes), which usually don’t affect how the drug works

Is citalopram the same as Lexapro or Zoloft?

No. Citalopram (Celexa) is not the same medication as:
- Lexapro (escitalopram)
- Zoloft (sertraline)
