Here’s a comparison of the latest prices for Citalopram and Celexa for both generic and brand-name versions of those antidepressant medications.
First, a look at the latest prices for these two antidepressants.
Prices for Citalopram and Celexa are based on the brand-name version of the medication that was available in the generic version (or the generic version, if a generic version is available, at a significantly lower price) for depression in the early 1990’s. Brand-name medications are generally much cheaper than the generic version of the medication.
Prices for both antidepressants range from about $30 to $50 a month, depending on the brand-name version of the medication. For example, a generic Citalopram price for Cialis 10mg would range from $70 to $100 a month, while a brand-name Celexa price would range from $180 to $240 a month.
Prices for Celexa and Citalopram are significantly lower than those for SSRIs, which are generally much less expensive. Both antidepressants contain the same active ingredient, citalopram, and Celexa was approved for approval in the U. S. in 2001. Celexa costs about $30 and $50 a month, respectively.
In fact, Celexa and its generic counterpart Celexa SR cost about $15 a month in the United States. Generic Citalopram prices range from $70 to $100 a month, while Celexa prices range from $90 to $190 a month. Celexa prices for both SSRIs include the same active ingredient, citalopram, and are significantly lower than those for citalopram. These antidepressants are also available in lower cost generic versions, although the generic versions of citalopram and SSRIs are typically much more affordable.
As mentioned earlier, Cialis and its generic counterpart, Cialis Carbonis (Tadalafil), are significantly lower cost than Celexa. Generic Cialis costs about $15 and $50 a month, respectively. As previously noted, Celexa and Cialis Carbonis contain the same active ingredient, citalopram, and are equally effective at treating depression.
Because these antidepressants are also very different from each other, their manufacturers may attempt to market their products in the same way, but this is very unlikely. For example, both Cialis and Cialis Carbonis contain the same active ingredient, escitalopram, but they are also taken orally, with or without food, and both medications are effective at treating depression. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved escitalopram for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD), but this approval is only for use as an antidepressant in certain cases.
As previously noted, both antidepressants may be more affordable than those approved for generic medication. The only exception to this rule is SSRIs, which were first approved for treating depression in the United States in 1989. SSRIs are generally much cheaper than citalopram, and generic Citalopram prices range from $90 to $150 a month.
The FDA also has approved generics for certain uses. Although both antidepressants may be more affordable than those approved for those uses, there are some factors to consider when choosing between generics and brand-name antidepressants.
Prices for Celexa and Celexa Generic are based on the brand-name version of the medication that was available in the generic version (or the generic version, if a generic version is available, at a significantly lower price). Celexa cost about $15 and $25 a month, respectively.
As mentioned earlier, Celexa and Cialis are equally effective at treating depression. Celexa cost about $30 and $50 a month, respectively.
As previously noted, Celexa and Cialis Carbonis are much cheaper than Celexa in the United States. Generic Celexa costs about $15 and $25 a month, respectively.
