So I’ve taken 6 dosages of 10mg Paxil. The first two days I found my stomach was upset had diarrhea well it went away for like a day and every day since it’s seem to stay the same I also get so nauseous and dry heave. It also feels like there’s a toxin inside of me. Have any of you guys who’ve taken it felt like that?

Hi. I couldn't tolerate it. But everyone's different.

I looked up common side effects for you.

Is stomach trouble a bad one? I'm asking because there is a med without that side effect.

Yes, I hav just tried it. I started last Friday or Saturday. I felt horrible with the same GI symptoms you mention. Beginning today I will not take any more, and can't wait for it to leave my system. It is bad enough to have a sad mood without being nauseous as well.

I only had one night of nausea on Paxil.

Talk to your doctor about your side effects. They may only be temporary. Maybe your doc can give you something for the nausea. Remember it takes weeks for medication to work. Each person reacts differently. Take it from someone who was on meds for decades. I am in my 60's.
