Hi, I wonder if Citalopram or escitalopram (medication for depression treatment ) can be used for cavanous angioma (in spinal cord ,had hamorrage 2 years ago) patient? will them cause or increase CA hamorrage or bleeding? What antidepresant (treat major depression)would you suggestion for CA patient (18 years old)? Thank you very much!
I read your question carefully, and I understand your concern. Regarding the relation with the cavernous Angola you shouldn't worry much as there is no harmful effect on the cavernous, no increased risk of bleeding. As for the choice SSRI (citalopram) are a good choice, but they have frequent effects on loss of sexual Chat Doctor. It should be discussed with a psychiatrist though, especially in an 18-year-old, because there is worry about potential increased suicide risk in use of these antidepressants before the age of 21. I hope to have been of help.
