Switch medication from citalopram to hypericum.[1] [2]
Stop citalopram - Before day 1: gradually reduce dosage of citalopram to a maximum of 20 mg/day, when this dosage is > 20 mg/day.
- Day 1: reduce dosage of citalopram to a maximum of 10 mg/day.
- Day 8: stop administration of citalopram
Start hypericum- Day 8-15: a wash-out period of 1 week is necessary.
- Day 16: start administration of hypericum in a dosage of 300 mg three times a day (900 mg/day).[3][4][5][6]
Cave
More information- Hypericum induces enzymes of the CYP P-450 type and P-gp type.
- Hypericum might have MAO-inhibiting and/or COMT-inhibiting properties.
- Many studies reported that hypericin is the main source of pharmacological effects of hypericum. However the IC50 of hypericin to inhibit MAO A and MAO B is 100- to 1000-fold higher than accessible Cmax values of hypericin after oral administration of hypericum.[9]
