What's the mechanism behind the excessive yawning side effect of SSRIs?

Citalopram is an SSRI with a 5% risk of fatigue. The fatigue leads to yawning, just the same as feeling tired of a long days work. Once the Serotonin levels build up at the pre synapses, the Serotonin hyperstimulates its receptors which uses up a lot of energy in cells. This increased metabolism is likened to working a lot. Which exhaust the body's energy source ---> tiredness

Why do SSRIs cause sleepiness?

SSRI’s may cause sleepiness in some cases, but certainly not all. The mechanism of action is thought to be increased intrasynaptic Serotonin from the blockade of Serotonin reuptake. As an increase in Serotonin levels is often associated with sleep onset, SSRI’s may cause increased yawning, sleepiness, and myoclonic movements that are similar to those experienced during sleep initiation. This varies widely from patient to patient and can range from mildly annoying to quite unpleasant and may necessitate tapering off the SSRI’s . There is some tendency for some SSRI’s to be more sedating with Paxil and Luvox being more so in my clinical experience than Zoloft or Prozac, but this is a clinical impression that should not be relied on to choose therapy. The effect usually wears off with tapering off the medication, however it’s wise to work with your treating physician to let her/him know of the problem as soon as possible.
