Paxil & Weightgain

by JoshNY, Dec 03, 2007 10:55PM
Let me see what you all think about this....

I've been taking Paxil for nearly two years.  I take a very small dose (10mgs) and recently have been playing around with the dosage, basically trying to wean off, although I always end up  going back to 10 a day (I try skipping days when attempting to wean off).

Anyway, I have recently gained about 10 pounds and I'm very suspicious that the Paxil is to blame.  Do you think someone could gain weight from Paxil even though he hadn't for almost two years? Perhaps playing with the dosage is triggering something?

Thanks!
