Dear , I can understand your problem. Psychiatric problems are always treated with a combination of medicines, psychotherapy and counseling. You are taking medicines but not supplementing it with psychotherapy and counseling. In fact, psychotherapy and counseling will help you to quit the medicine and continue without medicines. Please contact me with every detail and I will help you. Take care.

Hello, simple answer is with controlled release (cr) preparation, paroxetine shall remain in blood stream for longer time & will have less chance of adverse side effects like dry mouth, sleepiness etc. So, depending upon a patients profile psychiatrist shall choose whether paroxetine plain or paroxetine-cr is of better use.

Hello Lybrate user, thank you for your query. The dose depends on the condition for which paroxetine has been prescribed. Depression, anxiety, sleep disturbance or something else. The usual dose range is 12. 5 mg to 75 mg although 75 mg is usually not required. Hope this helps. Good luck and best wishes! if you wish for a detailed consultation for your problem, would be happy to help. Thank you.
