Seroxat/Paxil addiction

Seroxat Secrets has an excellent post regarding Seroxat/Paxil addiction.

The author pulls no punches with his message to GlaxoSmithKline, the FDA and the MHRA.

He writes:

You want to stop taking Seroxat, but when you try to stop, you find you can’t – the physical and mental withdrawal symptoms can include akathesia, agitation, mania, psychosis, self harm, suicidal thoughts and actions, violence, fear of loud noises, electric zaps of the head and body, thoughts of homicide, profuse sweating, disturbing nightmares, lack of empathy toward other people, anger, severe memory loss, nausea.

Not everyone who takes Seroxat will be affected – maybe 35%, maybe 40%, maybe 50%… the fact is that no one knows because Glaxo has never bothered to do any research into the level of Seroxat withdrawal problems nor any research into why some people suffer so badly.

The bottom line is Glaxo actually doesn’t care – it takes the line that there is no problem – Seroxat is safe and it’s easy to stop taking it.


He follows this up with evidence which points to GlaxoSmithKline previously concealing evidence regarding Seroxat.

It's an excellent post and finishes with the Seroxat Secrets author writing:

That’s why I’m looking forward to the High Court case in London and seeing all the previously secret documents that will no doubt become public over the course of the trial.


I echo his sentiments.
