Hi, i am thinking of getting pregnant, but i am taking paxil. So i guess, my question is whether to stay on it or not take it til i have a baby. Does anyone have experience with this?
Thanks

I agree with other members: talk to your doctors about this. If they decide it best for you to be off Paxil, ask if there is another alternative. Also, if you do go off of Paxil -talk to your doctor about slowly tapering off of it. Abrupt discontinuation usually = a lot of side effects/withdrawal effects.
