Hello, palpitations are a possible side effect of Citalopram. Ideally, we would start with a lower dose (10mg) to test tolerance and then increase the dose to 20mg. You can do the test yourself by cutting the pill in 2. However, the side effect is always possible even at a lower dose. In this case, you will have to change the whole treatment.
