Do not stop taking Paxil without first talking to your doctor. It may take 4 weeks or more for you to start feeling better and unpleasant side effects may be experienced if you stop taking Paxil suddenly. |

Paxil Drug Interactions? |
|
| |
If you have taken a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) such as phenelzine (Nardil), isocarboxazid (Marplan), or tranylcypromine (Parnate) any time in the previous two weeks, you can not take Paxil. Potentially fatal reactions can occur when these medications are used together. Paxil can also not be used in combination with thioridazine (Mellaril), since it can cause fatally irregular heartbeats. You must be off of thioridazine (Mellaril) for a minimum of five weeks before you can take Paxil safely. Tell your doctor if you have a family or personal medical history of liver disease, kidney disease, diabetes, seizures, or have mania or suicidal thoughts. If you are pregnant, likely to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk to your doctor before taking Paxil. |
