Paxil is used for depression and/or social anxiety disorders. Your doctor may have prescribed Paxil to treat other conditions as well. Paroxetine restores the balance of a brain neurotransmitter called serotonin by inhibiting its reuptake into the nerve cells.
Paxil should be taken about the same time every day, morning or evening and can be taken with or without food. It may up to 4 weeks to reach full effect, but you may see symptoms of depression improving in one to two weeks. Make sure that you know how the medicine affects you before driving or performing other hazardous tasks.
