Paxil

Depression and Anxiety Medication

This drug is an SSRI (Selctive Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor) designed to treat depression and anxiety. Now Paxil is under scrutiny for its devastating side effects from birth defects to psychiatric illness. Paxil has been linked to depression resulting in suicide and even homicide. It is now acknowledged that a condition called akathesia (severe inner restlessness) caused by the SSRI family of drugs can trigger suicidal tendencies. Manufactured by Glaxo/Smith/Kline Pharmaceuticals which failed to warn doctors of the potential serious side effects when aggressively marketing the product, consumers have been put at risk of harm.

How can something so simple like treating your child for a fever turn into a tragedy like Stevens Johnson Syndrome? Unfortunately if this has happened to you, you’re not the only one asking this question.

Stevens Johnson Syndrome (SJS) And its more severe form called Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) are life threatening serious skin disorders which can result in blindness, organ dysfunction and death. (1) These symptoms include rash, redness and blisters. Absent warning of these symptoms mothers and fathers all too often continue to give their children the drug making allowing for a simple skin problem to progress to a life altering condition like SJS or TEN.
