> That does seem like a short time to try to get off of Paxil. These doctors have no clue what we go through trying to withdraw from some of these meds! Adding in another med with serotonergic effect can help a lot. Duloxetine has some of that so maybe your doctor will allow you to start on it before you're completely off of the Paxil. You are lucky that he/she is going to start you on that drug. Many people, including lots of posters on this board, are waiting for that drug to come out. It's brand name is Cymbalta and you will find several posts here about it. Please let us know what your experience is with it.
Hi thanks for replying! Why do you say i'm lucky he is suggesting Cymbalta, i am in Canada and it has not been approved here yet... i very nervous about taking it, but i know i must come off the paxil can you enlighten me on the Cymbalta , has it been available for awhile anywhere, i am going to participate in a study,,, ( with duloxetine ) feel like a guinea pig.
