Paroxetine (Controlled Release) 25mg

Paroxetine can be used to treat panic disorders, anxiety and depression.

Panic disorders can be helped with the use of a medication known as Paroxetine controlled release (Pexep CR). This medicine will be something a doctor looks at offering for someone that has been dealing with such a problem for at least 6 months. They may have tried other forms of treatment but they weren’t effective enough. More serotonin is produced when this medicine is taken and that helps to regulate the mood and to reduce anxiety.

The doctor will try to get the situation under control using the least amount of Paroxetine controlled release possible. However, the more severe and frequent the panic attacks are, the more medicine a person will need to take daily. It is offered as a liquid and as a pill. It should be taken at the same time daily. Don’t skip doses and don’t stop taking it just because you feel better. Without the use of the medicine, then the panic attacks can start up again.

It is important to realize that Paroxetine controlled release isn’t a cure. It is merely a way to live a good quality of life and to control the panic attacks. It can take several weeks of using it before you notice results. Your doctor may need to adjust the amount of it you take so be patient. Those who are pregnant, nursing, have liver problems, or that have problems with their eyes such as glaucoma can’t take this without risks.

There are only a few side effects associated with the use of Paroxetine controlled release. They may include headache and fatigue. Some patients find they have a harder time concentrating in the first week or so after they start taking it. If the side effects linger or they are severe you should tell your doctor. You may need a lower dose or a different medication.
