All Truth passes through Three Stages: First, it is Ridiculed. Second, it is Violently Opposed... Third, it is Accepted as being Self-Evident. - Arthur Schopenhauer (1778-1860) By Charly Groenendijk           Back to Side-Effects

   Paxil, Seroxat, Aropax or Pexeva (Paroxetine) Side-Effects  
  

"Who does Not Know the Truth, is simply a Fool...
Yet who Knows the Truth and Calls it a Lie, is a Criminal."
- In "Galileo Galilei" by Berthold Brecht (1898-1956)

Take notice that also non SSRI anti-depressants (and even Ritalin) may interact (primary or secondary) with the serotonergic (or serotoninergic) system in the brain. Every medication -especially SSRI Anti-depressants- boosting serotonin activity in the brain, has potential to induce the very dangerous and potentially fatal hyperserotonergic state of the Serotonin Syndrome.
