Paroxetine 20mg

Paroxetine is often used for depression, but the use of Paroxetine (Xet) for the treatment of panic disorders is also very common. This typically won’t be prescribed though until a person has been experiencing sudden attacks of extreme fear and worry that span over 6 months and nothing else has worked to reduce them. Xet 20mg (Paroxetine 20mg) is able to help with making the brain produce more of a chemical called serotonin which is good for improving mood.

The amount of Paroxetine that has to be taken daily for successful treatment of panic disorder will vary. The individual will have to be assessed with information about the frequency of those attacks and their severity being noted. The doctor is going to do what they can to start you on a regimen of daily medicine that is enough to reduce the problem and to keep side effects low.

The use of Paroxetine won’t cure panic disorder but it can help a person to be able to live a very good quality of life. Continue to take this medicine even when you find that you are feeling much better than before. If you stop taking it the panic attacks can start up again. Withdrawal symptoms can also occur if you stop taking this medication suddenly rather than tapering off.

If you have health concerns such as a blood disorder, glaucoma, or liver problems then this medicine may not be right for you. Don’t consume alcohol while taking Paroxetine as it will reduce its effectiveness. If you are pregnant or nursing you shouldn’t use this medication.

The side effects that are associated with Paroxetine are usually very mild. They can include problems focusing, fatigue, and headaches. They shouldn’t last more than a few weeks so tell your doctor if they do. The lower the dose of this medicine is the less likely it is that you will have any side effects.
