has anyone taken the medicine paxil cr? does it cause weight gain?

Answer 1

I have taken Paxil cr, and no weight gain. However, I did not experience much relief from it. Now I am on Lexapro and it is way better! I am taking it for OCD, Anxiety attacks and Depression. It works way better than the Paxil. No weight gain on this one either.

Answer 2

Hi,
I took Paxil and I did not gain weight at first, but after an adjustment period I did begin to gain a little weight. It did seem to help, but the side effects were awful for me so I just stopped taking it. I did not know you had to be weaned off Paxil. I began seeing things and thinking things were happening that were not. It was scary.
