A member asked:
Is there any benefit over paxil (paroxetine) cr over the regular paxil (paroxetine)? why would one prescribe one over the other? just courious.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Side-effects: Paxil (paroxetine) cr has no advantage over regular Paxil (paroxetine) in terms of effectiveness. For most patients there is no advantage at all. However, some patients might find Paxil (paroxetine) effective, but have side-effects that appear to be related to peak levels of the medication. In that circumstance, Paxil (paroxetine) cr may be helpful.
