So no, it is not similar, nor in the same class as Aropax, which contains the active ingredient Paroxetine, this one is an SSRI antidepressant.

I was given this as part of a 'cocktail' for cluster migraines and find it strange that a side effect is a headache???? Do you think it is OK to keep taking them when i get the migraine?
