Drug Uses
Paxil is an agent in
a newer class of antidepressant medication known as selective
serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Depression and anxiety
disorders might be caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain.
One of these chemicals is serotonin, which helps send electrical
signals from one nerve cell to another. In the process, serotonin
is released from one nerve cell (the sender) and travels to
the next (the receiver), where it is either absorbed or returns
back to the original sender cell.
Paxil comes as a tablet to take by mouth.
It is usually taken once daily and may be taken with or without
food. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often
than prescribed by your doctor. Continue to take Paxil even
if you feel well. Do not stop taking Paxil without talking
to your doctor, especially if you have taken large doses for
a long time. Your doctor probably will want to decrease your
dose gradually. This drug must be taken regularly for a few
weeks before its full effect is felt.
Before taking Paxil, tell your doctor if
you have liver disease, kidney disease, seizures or epilepsy,
or a manic disorder or suicidal thoughts. You may not be able
to take Paxil, or you may need a dosage adjustment or special
monitoring during treatment if you have any of the conditions
listed above. Paxil is in the FDA pregnancy category C. This
means that it is not known whether it will be harmful to an
unborn baby. Do not take Paxil without first talking to your
doctor if you are pregnant or could become pregnant during
treatment. Paxil passes into breast milk and may affect a
nursing baby. Do not take Paxil without first talking to your
doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember
it. However, if it is almost time for the next dose, skip
the missed dose and continue your regular dosing schedule.
Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
If you experience any of the following
serious side effects, stop taking Paxil and contact your doctor
immediately or seek emergency medical treatment: an allergic
reaction (difficulty breathing; closing of the throat; swelling
of the lips, tongue, or face; or hives); an irregular heartbeat
or pulse; low blood pressure (dizziness, weakness); high blood
pressure (severe headache, blurred vision); unusual bleeding
or bruising; or fever or chills. Less serious side effects
may be more likely to occur. Continue to take Paxil and talk
to your doctor if you experience headache; tremor, nervousness,
or anxiety; nausea, diarrhea, dry mouth, or changes in appetite
or weight; sleepiness or insomnia; or decreased sex drive,
impotence, or difficulty having an orgasm. Side effects other
than those listed here may also occur. Talk to your doctor
about any side effect that seems unusual or that is especially
bothersome.
Store at controlled room temperature between
20-25?C (68-77?F).
Seek emergency medical attention if an
overdose is suspected. Symptoms of a Paxil overdose include
nausea, vomiting, tremor, seizures, agitation, drowsiness,
hyperactivity, and enlarged pupils.
Use caution when driving, operating machinery,
or performing other hazardous activities. Paxil may cause
dizziness or drowsiness. If you experience dizziness or drowsiness,
avoid these activities. Use alcohol cautiously. Alcohol may
increase drowsiness or dizziness while taking Paxil.
