My doctor printed out a prescription for 5mgs celexa. I'm on 20. Do they even make a 5mgs celexa? I should have said something, but the whole appointment went so fast. What am I going to do? I see him again in 2 weeks, but I'll be out of celexa (20mgs) by then.
Help!

Between the pharmacy and your doc's office it should be corrected - your doctor's notes in your file will be consulted and will overrule whatever error he made in writing.
PartlyCloudy, who has had this happen once or twice.

Since it's not a controlled drug. Explain to pharmacist and let him give the doc a call. Everything will be fine. And if for some reason the pdoc is away I've had the pharmacist give me pills to tide me over till error fixed. Phillipa
