Dear Maria, welcome to HealthcareMagic!
Its nice that you have a good response to antidepressant therapy. Meizitang is a herbal (botanical) slimming soft gel (www.meizitang.com/). Its interactions with citalopram may not be known as it is not studied in this situation. Many ayurvedic/ alternative medicines may have unknown side effects. You must ask also your doctor about this. Good luck.
