Long-Term Paxil Side Effects
Unfortunately, when the efficacy and risks of drugs are studied, the length of the majority of these studies is only short term. However, many Americans who have been prescribed SSRIs have been taking them for 10 years or more. This is troubling, as there have been some severe risks associated with long term use of antidepressants, such as a 14% increased risk of cardiovascular events, including heart attack and stroke. Worse, long-term Paxil use is associated with a 33% increased risk of death.
Serotonin plays vital roles in immune function, digestion, and growth. Continuous disruption of these levels may have wide-ranging negative effects, especially for certain populations. The side effects of Paxil in elderly patients can include negative effects on cognitive function, as there is strong evidence that the long-term usage of Paxil may lead to an increased risk of dementia. Also, between 1-8% of patients taking Paxil in various clinical trials developed hypomania and mania symptoms. Paxil has been used to treat hot flashes associated with menopause.
While Paxil may decrease incidents of hot flashes, the side effects of Paxil for hot flashes are most commonly fatigue and dizziness. Few studies have been carried out on use of SSRIs during pregnancy, but the ones that are published show increased risk to the infant including premature term, smaller head growth, and the potential for numerous other birth defects, for which the drug maker has been fined over $1 billion in damages to 800 cases reported up to 2010. No data for later lawsuits concerning birth defects has been published on extensive search.
Serious side effects of long-term Paxil use include:
Tremors
Loss of coordination
Restlessness
Muscle weakness
Tingling
Numbness
Black stool
Hallucinations
Eye pain, redness or swelling
While most SSRIs aren’t a primary concern for recreational use, dependency is a possibility with any drug. According to the FDA, Paxil withdrawal symptoms can be severe and “treatable only by restarting the drug.” Withdrawal symptoms occur when the drug is stopped after drug dependency has developed.
Symptoms of Paxil withdrawal include:
Agitation
Aggression
Diarrhea
Forgetfulness
Headaches
High blood pressure
Insomnia
Sexual dysfunction
Sweating
Weight gain
