| stop =
* Administration of hypericum can be stopped abruptly.
| start =
* '''Day 1-7:''' a wash-out period of one week is necessary.
* '''Day 8:''' start administration of citalopram/escitalopram in a dosage of 20 mg/day, resp. 10 mg/day.
* If necessary, increase dosage of citalopram/escitalopram.
| info =
* Hypericum slows the metabolism of citalopram/escitalopram via CYP3A4. This effect may persist up to two weeks after stopping hypericum, so caution is necessary.}}
