Hi,
Thank you for choosing Healthcaremagic. There is a possibility that Paroxetine i.e Seroxat tablets may harm your unborn baby, including an increased risk of birth defects, particularly heart defects. Other risks may include a serious condition in which there is not enough oxygen in the baby"s blood. Your baby may also have certain other symptoms shortly after birth. Premature births have also been reported in some women who used Paroxetine tablets during pregnancy.
Please ask if you have more questions. If you are satisfied, please make sure that your ACCEPT my answer so that I receive credit. Good luck!!
