What Causes Dizziness And Nausea After Stopping Paxil Intake?
Detailed below.
Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Thank you for the query.
Paxil (SSRI type antidepressant) should not be stopped suddenly. The dosage should be lowered gradually so the quitting process can take few months. Otherwise you will have terrible withdrawal symptoms like those you have right now. This can get even worse. Such symptoms usually last few weeks. Mentioned by you symptoms are typical for SSRI discontinuation.
So if you made this decision by your own (without consulting your doctor), please get back to regular dosage and discuss with your doctor about how to gradually quit Paxil.
If this decision was made by your doctor, please let him know about the side effects you have right now. He should advise you to take low dosage of Paxil what should help with the symptoms you have.
Hope this will help. Feel free to ask further questions.
Regards.
