    Default Finasteride and antidepressants interaction.

    Hi, iv been taking 1mg Finasteride for a few years now through private prescription, my doctor doesn't know about this. I was recently prescribed the anti depressant citalopram 10mg by my doctor, I stopped taking finasteride as a precaution. Does anybody know if they are safe to be both taken daily? I don't want my hair to suffer as I have to stick with the antidepressants for a few months but I'm not sure if they could possibly interact.

    Does anybody have any experience or knows if this is safe, or even a website where I may be able to check.?

    Thanks for any help.

    -Adam

    Hiding drug usage from your doctor is a really really stupid thing to do. Talk with them about this.
