A member asked:
Did the paroxetine 20 mg make your hands shaky and for how long?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's fairly common: Unfortunately this is a known side effect and from what I've heard, it is more common w/ long term use - so it may not go away. Also, it is reported as a w/drawal effect and it can take awhile to stop this drug too fast - so definitely work w/ your doctor to begin coming off it if possible. Please consider CBT therapy as an adjunct to reduce medication needs or even eliminate them.
