I have been on Paxil Cr 12.5mg for 2 years for anxiety. I have been told by my Pharmacist that I will need to switch to something else. My MD is switching me over to Effexor XL 37.5mg every day. Has anyone else had to change?

I don't know much about either of these meds. but they might have discovered that the Paxil has more side effects? Did your doctor say why he was switching you? I have a friend asking me about Paxil. Does it really work well for you? How long did it take to start taking effect? Do you have side effects from it?

The FDA has haulted the production of it due to manufacturing issues with a plant in Tenn. I did not have any side effect with it so I really hated the thought of swithing. Started the Effexor 37.5mg and so far no side effects.
