Blood Donations.

[smithers]

Can I donate blood if I am taking Citalopram?

[andy-hughes]

Yes, but declare it on the form when you go.

[joko]

no.

i was told i could not donate when i was on prozac and not for at least 3 months after i finished taking it.

this was a good few years ago so perhaps they have procedures now to make it acceptable, and ensure it only goes to people who will have no contraindications

give them a ring and ask them
