Paroxatine and alcohol10/05/2009 |
i am about to start taking paroxatine for depression and panic attacks, before i was taking prozac and drank socially at weekends with friends.will i still be able to do this with paroxatine
Of course it is never possible to recommend the use of alcohol in individuals experiencing difficulties with mood or anxiety symptoms. Despite this patients have used modest amounts of alcohol with paroxetine and fluoxetine. I think you must be made aware that even modest amounts of alcohol can contribute to worsening of anxiety and depressive symptoms and can decrease the potential for maximal benefits of these antidepressants. Discuss these issues with your physician.
