Dear Ramniwas, i don't know the diagnosis at 77 years. There may be other medical illnesses also for which medicines are prescribed. Now that your father has stopped and he is fine, no need to restart. Wait and watch for some symptoms of original depression and consult your doctor. At old age less number of drugs is better.

12.5 mg of paroxetine drug is the lowest dose that is usually used to start the drug or when treated to taper down from high doses to this dose and then be stopped, hence in my suggestion if he has been treated off an illness and the doctor put him on this dose for quiet dome time, then even if stopped you don't need to restart it unless required.
