I'm curious as to whether generic Celexa is even on the market yet?

I can't afford a doctor visit and the brand name price right now, but I really could stand to be on meds at the moment. A friend of mine is also on Celexa and she mailed me what she says is the generic version. Aside from the fact that it's scored, it looks nothing like brand name. It's big and round and doesn't even have the strength number on it. Just says RDY 344 on one side, scored on the other, and it's round, a little larger than plain aspirin. She just dumped them in a Winn-Dixie pharmacy bag and sent them in a casette tape mailer. For all I know, it could be aspirin and I'm not going to take it. She's posted on other message boards that she's taken her friends to the store and bought them herbal remedies that claim to help their problem and hopes that they'll get better based on, if nothing else, the placebo effect. Not to sound paranoid, but she could have pulled the same thing on me - mailed me vitamin C or something but saying it's citalopram.

I've looked online trying to find pictures with no luck. I'm not going to take this unknown pill, but I am curious if the generic is widely available now.
