I have suffered from panic attacks for 35 years. Finally my Doctor prescribed Paxil . I asked if there were any side-effects - he said no. After 6 months I gained at least 20 pounds - (I hardly ate anything)! Within 1 month I discontinued the Meds - only 10 mg and lost the weight. After 7 years I still suffer from crazy dreams. Please - what is going on. I appreciate your assistance. P.S. I am back to my normal weight, thankfully after going off the Meds.. No more INSANE drugs for me. Thank you for your consideration
