What are the names for Celexa (citalopram)?

Celexa is a brand name for the prescription antidepressant citalopram. It may also be referred to by its generic name, citalopram, and may appear under other trade names depending on the country.

Is Celexa the same as “citalopram”?

Yes. Celexa is the brand name; citalopram is the generic (active ingredient). The tablets are commonly described by strength (for example, citalopram 10 mg, 20 mg, or 40 mg), which can affect what the label says even though the medicine is the same.

What other “Celexa” names might you see on prescriptions or labels?

You may see:
- Celexa (brand)
- citalopram (generic ingredient name)
- citalopram hydrobromide (a related naming format used for the drug substance on some labels)

If you share the exact wording from the bottle or prescription label (including strength), I can help interpret what name it corresponds to.
