Paxil is a drug also referred to as Paroxetine used in the treatment of depression in the class of SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors). Paroxetine is also capable of treating other disorders like anxiety disorder, post traumatic stress disorder and premenstrual dysphoric disorder. The main work of Paxil is to balance some chemicals in the human body that are responsible for
the mood swings. Paxil therefore can correct an individual’s mood, appetite and may also increase the interest of pleasurable activities. Paxil is known to reduce the intensity of anxiety and fear and also reduce the suicidal thoughts associated with depression. It is also believed to suppress some of the symptoms of premenstrual dysphoric disorder such as increased appetite and irritability.
The use of Paxil to treat depression highly depends on the patient’s ability to respond to medication and also the type of the depression the victim is suffering from. It is usually taken orally according to the prescribed dose. One of the things that a patient should consider before taking Paxil for depression treatment is reading the instructions on the drug to avoid taking an over dose or under dose which may turn out to be harmful to them. Taking an overdose may worsen the situation that the patient is suffering from.

Paxil should be used as prescribed by the doctor where it is mostly required to be taken regularly without fail. The drug should be taken according to the prescription and should not be increased or reduced. The doctor should also make sue that the patient starts the drug gradually if need be because people’s response to drugs is different. Taking the drug in excess or without considering the doctor’s prescription only worsens the condition and also increases the side effects of the drug.
