Can Cilatopram Be Taken Instead Of Zoloft?

My mom used to take the same thing but her dr switched hers to cilatopram 20mg because its cheaper. Since i havent had my medicune she gave me one of hers. Is this okay for just tonight

Citalopram and Zoloft are not interchangeable medicines. They belong to the same class of antidepressants but it is not advisable to take one in lieu of another for a few days or even a day.
You should get Zoloft again. If you wish to switch completely to Citalopam, then discuss the same with your doctor. If you switch to Citalopam then you should take it regularly as per doctor's instructions.
I hope this answers your question.
