Citalopram-induced photopigmentation.

Inaloz HS, Kirtak N, Herken H, Ozgoztasi O, Aynacioglu AS.

Department of Dermatology, University of Gaziantep Faculty of Medicine, Turkey.

Citalopram is one of the newer and most potent selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor (SSRI) drugs. It has a well-established antidepressive action with a favorable adverse event profile. We present a fifty-year-old woman with diffuse photopigmentation who had been diagnosed as suffering from depression. The patient was given citalopram (40 mg/day) for her psychiatric condition and diffuse photopigmentation was noted thereafter. To our knowledge, such an adverse event has not been reported previously.
