Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi Advan369

Parocen cr is a controlled release form of Paroxetene if I am right. It is an SSRI type antidepressant. I would suggest that you consult a psychiatrist to see what could be substituted for it depending on your symptom/complaint profile, on any physical problems that you/your family has a history of having and any side effects that you need to avaoid, any other medication that you are taking that might intereact with your this medication etc etc etc........we spend years trying to learn these things and you want to snatch away our livelihood by getting free advice online :-) :-) :-)

Just kidding. But jokes apart, you MUST consult a doctor before you start any psychiatric medication. There are lot of things that you don't realise that goes into this decision making process.

Good Luck
