I started with 5 mg Paxil 4 days ago to my 4 mg of Edronax. Today I increased the Paxil to 10 mg and felt very sedated; drowsiness and headache. Are this side effects common and do fade away ? I felt like that when I was on Effexor 150 mg with 40 mg Celexa. Perhaps Edronax and Paxil together is similar to Effexor ? I was on Celexa up to 100 mg and I never felt such strong side effects by increasing the dose. Unfortunateley the Celexa made me to tired at doses over 60 mg and didnt give me a relief. Zoloft failed because of awful nausea during my 6 week trial instead I hadnt other side effects.
Any inputs ?

Hi ya! Your pleas have not fallen on deaf ears...If u scroll up the current thread page there is a simular question. You may want 2 look @ those threads. I'm currently tapering off paxil but don't have alot of encouraging thoughts about it. If you do a seach on this site for paroxetine or paxil or what ever it's marketed as in the UK (I think it's seroxat? but don't quote me-memory isn't quite up to par). Good luck...
