Hey there... Years ago I took Paxil, I had an allergic reaction to it. I turned lobster red like I baked out in the sun nude. You need to research Paxil, I thought I read somewhere where it isn't effective as they thought, it seemed they had a few others like Effexer, and fluoxetine, not sure what the name brand was off hand. Memory fails me. Keep us posted.

Big Hugs,

Ada

They switched me to Paxil six weeks before I had my first neurological attack of all the vision dysfunction.I stoped taking it and went back on Zoloft.
