Switching from Lexapro to Paxil

Posted by lemonie on April 23, 2004, at 10:40:34

Can I taper off Lexapro 30 mg while taking Paxil 25 mg? Or do I need to stop taking the Lexapro first before starting paxil?

I tapered off Lexapro (30mg) a while back (without consulting my MD) b/c it made me so tired! I had terrible side effects (even dangerous), and am afraid to have nothing in my system.

I took Paxil in the past and it never made me tired and I felt great, my MD just had me on Lexapro while I was nursing my baby (I took nothing while pregnant).

Anyway, my MD is out of town and I don't want to call his answering service b/c I don't think this constitutes and emergency. Any suggestions?
