Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic
Among antidepressants, paroxetine has highest withdrawal symptoms. You are on lowest effective dose and at that dose, chances of getting withdrawal symptoms like tiredness, anxiety symptoms are less. In case, it happens you can use benzodiazepine on sos basis or can do relaxation exercise. These symptoms would go in few days, may be in week.
Thanks
