Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

Paroxetine leads to delayed ejaculation. This is usual side effects with antidepressant and very common with paroxetine. If this is your first depressive episode, then you can try to quit medication after 6 to 9 months of treatment. Better to start taking paroxetine 12.5mg and in case, you do not feel any depressive symptoms, you can stop it.

Thanks
