, I had to increase my dose of Paxil

[Guest guest]

Hello,

I wrote a week ago saying that I had been at 10 mg of Paxil for months

and suddenly wasn't functioning well. I have been taking 15 mg for the

past week.

I feel the same and maybe even worse. I really do not like this feeling.

It is almost as though I am not taking any Paxil at all. I am still

feeling dizzy, which scares me.

So today I increased my dose to 20 mg. Is it OK that I was on the 15 mg

for only one week before increasing? I mean, was that enough time to

let the increased dose go into effect?

If I still feel the same a week from today, should I increase it to 25

mg?

Should I keep increasing until I feel well, even if it means that I end

up back at 40 mg, which is where I originally started nine months ago?

I would HATE to do that, but my husband and children deserve, and need,

a fully functioning wife and mother. Please advise!

Thank you,

Donna
