A member asked:

I took a half of valium (5mg) at 12:45pm. im scheduled to take paxil (paroxetine) at 2pm.. is it safe?

Your doctor can help: The doctor who gave you these pills can also explain how and when to take these medicines. From my perspective, you can take them as you wish or need them. Good luck
