I m switching from 30 mg of paxil to 20 mg of Celica. Was on paxil for many years and worked well for anxiety and panic attacks but is no longer working. My doctor is having me switch from one to the other and i am so nervous. I worry about everything including side effects and getting serotonin syndrome

Hello,

In my opinion, make sure that the thyroid function and renal function are normal.

Continental with the medication, serotonin syndrome can be caused by certain medication combination. Also, go for cognitive behavioral therapy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
