SSRI effects on pyschomotor performance: assessment of citalopram and escitalopram on normal subjects.

Abstract

While we found some of the expected side effects due to citalopram and escitalopram, there was no impact on psychomotor performance. These findings support the possibility of using citalopram and escitalopram for returning aircrew to restricted flight duties (non-tactical flying) under close observation as a maintenance treatment after full resolution of depression.
