Hi, I have been on paxidep 37.5 CR for a year. I feel I am ready to start weaning off it. Here in India my psychiatrist suggested that I start taking 25 CR. But I had earlier done that & it had strong effect. I tried tolerating for a few weeks but had to get back to 37.5. I feel I am ready now. I would like to reduce 10% of my dosage every month. HOW DO I WEAN OFF A 37.5 CR TABLET AT 10%? ## This medication (Paroxetine)[1] is considered an SSRI and should be gradually tapered under the careful supervision of your doctor.

What is this tablet prescribed for and what are the side effects? I have not started it yet and feel a little nervous. ## I have been taking Paxidep CR 25 for the last 7 years, but now I am getting side effects of this medicine. Always drowsiness and always in sleeping mood. I can't read news paper - whenever I am trying to to read within 10 second my eyes will be closed and I was in a sleeping position. ## @Vinu - Paxidep CR is prescribed for anxiety and depression, and contains the active ingredient Paroxetine.

round white pill 20 mg- what should teh imprint code look like? ## Well, since this is a generic for the antidepressant Paxil, there are many companies that make it and all of their imprint codes will be different. This means there is no possible way that I could post all of them. Some are: PAXIL 20, this would be the name brand. 93 7115 ZC 16 N2 M APO 083 par877 P2 G C 56 422 POT 20 And this, of course, is not a comprehensive list. Do any of these match your tablets? If not, please post the imprint and I will gladly look it up for you. ## Thank you! The imprint is CZ16. I was just a little paranoid because the shape of the pill was different this time and when it arrived by mail the tablets had fallen out of the container and were loose in the packaging. Anyway, now I can rest easy. Th...

info ## Once again, a foreign medication unavailable in the U.S. Foreign countries just don't regulate their meds like the FDA does, so it is very hard to find information on them. You could try asking your doctor or pharmacist for more information. ## Do you by chance mean the anti depressant Paroxetine - brand name Paxil ? ## Peroxidine is Vitamin B6: Discovered in 1934 and emphasized in 1938, vitamin B6 was synthetized in 1939 and called peroxidine. Pyridoxamine and pyridoxal. Source: I was prescribed Miligamma for nerve damage in my hands and Miligama contains Peroxidine, my MD explained to me that it's Vit B6

Found a small round pink pill with p/a on one side and c on the other side , what could it be? ## Based on the description provided, the closest match I could find is identified as Paroxetine (20mg), manufactured by Aurobindo Pharma. This specific medication is a round vibrant-pink pill imprinted with C on one side and 5/6 on the other side. I'm just wondering if perhaps the "6" was mistaken for an upside down P or if the "5" could even be an A? Apparently it's said to be a very small pill. Maybe smaller than a Benadryl tablet. Does anyone else recognize this pill? ## Hi there, I know exactly the ones you mean. Found one in my bag this morning, and checked against my Propranolol tablets I have for anxiety and it's that. They're 10mg strength and manufactu...

I need to ask you more is any other pills for severe depression sometime I feel like I'm going to be crazy please. ## There are many other medications available, such as SSRIs like Paroxetine or Sertraline and SNRIs that include Venlafaxine and Duloxetine. The FDA lists their typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and weight changes. The Bupropion can actually cause nervousness in some people, so it might not be the right medication for you. How long have you been taking it?

Fell pregnant whilst taking Extine what are some of the birth defects this medication can cause ? ## Hello, Marni! How are you? Congratulations on the pregnancy! Extine is listed as containing the active ingredient Paroxetine, which the FDA classifies as an SSRI antidepressant. They place it in pregnancy category D, which means there has been some evidence of risk. Most prominently cardiovascular malformations. It would be best to make sure that your doctor knows that you were taking it, the dosage you were taking and how long you were taking it, before discovering you were pregnant. That way they can evaluate the risk level and they may be able to preempt some issues. Is there anything else I can help with?
