Tapering Paxil (Yawn)

Posted by Civ on December 4, 2003, at 16:07:43

I am disgusted with Paxil CR. This is the third time I've *safely* tried to taper off this drug and I still feel the side effects. I don't even want to get into the first experience when a clueless doctor had me stop it cold turkey.
Curretly, I'm switching off dosages:
25, 12.5, 25, 12.5, etc.,
If you have experience in coming off Paxil, how did you do it? My method or something different? My pdoc wanted me to take 5 g of Lexapro to ease withdrawal symptoms, but I would like to avoid taking Lex. I think it was mentioned above that Prozac is used to ease withdrawal. The rationale is that Prozac can be stopped relatively easily, correct?
