A member asked:
Im a male to female transgender girl. i have anxiety and sleep apnea and taking paxil. ive been drinking slim fast and feel shaky is it safe to drink while on paxil? can drinking it cause shakiness?

Slim Fast has no documented side effects when used with Paxil, but if anxiety is not controlled with Paxil, it may be better to ask your provider for an SSRI with a shorter half life, so discontinuing the medication to see if the "shakiness" is related to Paxil is easier to accomplish.
