Is it the same as pill Celexa? How many mL/tablespoons/teaspoons = how many mgs of pill? How do you administer this, injection, swallow, either?

Liquid is for people who can't swallow pills since it makes them gag.
It's less costly to take pills because you can get pills that are double the strength that you need, and then cut them in half.

Do they make a 120 mg pill? I take 60mg a day and my insurance will only cover one pill a day, but they cover unlimited liquid celexa.

I don't think so. I know that they make 40 mg pills but I'm not sure if they come any higher than that. In your case, it sounds like the liquid is the best way to go.
