Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am taking Paxidep cr 25 from the past 2.5 months as I was suffering from Anxiety neurosis. Initially it was for 2 months and then after 1 tablet a day alternatively. On 2nd sept 2011 i finished with my 2 months regular schedule of taking the tablet after that I was taking it alternatively till today however I think I am developing withdrawal symptoms of this tablet. May I know what are the withdrawal symptoms of this medicine ?
Elimination half life of paroxetine is 21 to 26 hours and in that case, if you stop it immediately, it would take 4 to 5 days to come out of body. You have anxiety disorder and current symptoms, could be due to relapse rather than withdrawal. In that case, you should consult your psychiatrist and restarting it. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
