Generally taking this medication for lifetime is reserved for patients having frequent depression episodes or unresolving anxiety. If its your first episode, you can try and stop it after 9-12 months. Every medication has its own set of side effects, and this medication is no different. However you can consult your psychiatrist and ask them to look for any side effects in the long term.
