I was prescribed paxil while i was pregnant...I had developed into a depressive state at that time due to many situations...i was on it for approx 6 months..and decided to stop taking it....I got severe withdrawal symptoms..i know they say there aren't severe withdrawals but that was not the case with me...i went back on it and weaned myself off of it with success...now i beleive my son has ADD and i am wondering if there is a link to my taking this while pregnant..at the time i was told that this was the only drug that was considered safe for pregnancy...now i am reading that there have not been any studies done on this...so what am i to beleive..i am very concerned that his may have caused my sons behavioural problem.What can you tell me about pregnancy and paxil?
