|
|
| 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. |
