GENERIC Citalopram has been considered by the PCN and has been assigned a GREEN traffic light status. NOTE - the branded product, Cipramil, was considered BLACK at the PCN in May 2017. NOTE - The Mood Hive and associated local depression and anxiety treatment guidelines have been removed from PAD. Updated guidelines and resources for treating and managing depression in adults are being developed by Surrey & Borders Partnership.
