Can I Take Kalms For My Anxiety?

Hi, I have had a sucessful kidney transplant since 2001, and am taking sirolimus 4mg OD, azathioprine 25mg OD and enalapril 20mg OD. I also take 30mg of citalopram daily, due to stress related to an ongoing divorce, but still suffer from very bad headaches, neck pain and anxiety. I saw 'Kalms' in the pharmacy the other day. Are they safe for someone like me? Do they work? Thank you, Debbie

Hi Dear,
as you had a successful kidney transplant in 2001 an right now you are on multiple medication and also citalopram 20 mg which also take care of your anxiety. but you did not find any improvement so kalms is may be clonazepam which is effective in anxiety but it should be take under doctor's advise. there are man more medication for anxiety so go for psychiatrist for further management. as kalms having property of addiction and you had under gone kidney transplant not need to take medication by your self .
if you have query ask your doctor who gave you citalopram..
thank you
