1. What Paroxetina Viatris is and what it is used for
Paroxetine is a treatment for adults with depression (major depressive episode) and/or anxiety disorders. The anxiety disorders treated with paroxetine are: obsessive-compulsive disorder (obsessive, repetitive thoughts with uncontrollable behaviour), panic disorder (panic attacks, including those caused by agoraphobia—fear of open spaces), social anxiety disorder (fear or avoidance of social situations), post-traumatic stress disorder (anxiety caused by a traumatic event), and generalized anxiety disorder (persistent feelings of anxiety or nervousness).
Paroxetine belongs to a group of medicines called SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors). Serotonin is a substance found in the brain of all people. People who suffer from depression or anxiety have lower levels of serotonin than the general population. While the exact way in which paroxetine and other SSRIs work is not fully understood, it is known that they can help increase serotonin levels in the brain. It is important to properly treat depression and anxiety disorders as this will help you recover.
2. What you need to know before taking Paroxetina Viatris
Do not take Paroxetina Viatris
- If you are allergic to paroxetine or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
- If you are being treated with a type of medicine called monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs, including moclobemide, linezolid, and methylene blue chloride (methylene blue)), or if you have been treated with such medicines within the last two weeks. Your doctor will advise you on how to start taking paroxetine after stopping MAOIs.
- If you are taking antipsychotic medicines called thioridazine or pimozide.
If you are in any of these situations, inform your doctor and do not take paroxetine.
Warnings and precautions
Tell your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before starting to take paroxetine.
- If you have any kidney, liver, or heart problems.
- If you have epilepsy or a history of seizures or convulsions.
- If you have ever had manic episodes (hyperactive thoughts or behavior).
- If you are being treated for severe depression with electroconvulsive therapy (ECT).
- If you are diabetic.
- If you have a known heart rhythm abnormality on electrocardiogram (ECG) called QT interval prolongation.
- If you have a family history of QT interval prolongation, heart diseases such as heart failure, slow heart rate, or low levels of potassium or magnesium.
- If you have low sodium levels in the blood.
- If you have glaucoma (increased pressure in the eye).
- If you are taking tamoxifen to treat breast cancer or fertility problems. Paroxetine may reduce the effectiveness of tamoxifen, and your doctor may recommend taking another antidepressant.
- If you have a history of bleeding disorders, if you are pregnant (see “Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility”), or if you are taking other medicines that may increase the risk of bleeding (including medicines used to thin the blood, such as warfarin, antipsychotics such as perphenazine or clozapine, tricyclic antidepressants such as clomipramine, medicines used to treat pain and inflammation called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as acetylsalicylic acid, ibuprofen, celecoxib, etodolac, diclofenac, meloxicam).
- If you have a history of bleeding disorders, if you are pregnant (see “Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility”), or if you are taking other medicines that may increase the risk of bleeding (including medicines used to thin the blood, such as warfarin, antipsychotics such as perphenazine or clozapine, tricyclic antidepressants such as clomipramine, medicines used to treat pain and inflammation called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as acetylsalicylic acid, ibuprofen, celecoxib, etodolac, diclofenac, meloxicam).
- If you are under 18 years of age (see section “Use in children and adolescents under 18 years”).
Please confirm with your doctor if any of the above applies to you, or if you are unsure.
Use in children and adolescents under 18 years
Paroxetine should not be used to treat children and adolescents under 18 years of age. In patients under 18 years, there is an increased risk of adverse effects such as suicide attempts, suicidal thoughts, and hostility (mainly aggression, confrontational behavior, and irritability) when taking this type of medicine. Nevertheless, your doctor may prescribe paroxetine to patients under 18 years if they decide it is in the patient’s best interest. If your doctor has prescribed paroxetine to you (or your child) and you wish to discuss this decision, please consult your doctor again. You must inform your doctor if any of the symptoms listed above appear or worsen while you (or your child) are taking paroxetine. In addition, the long-term effects on safety regarding growth, maturation, and cognitive and behavioral development in this age group have not yet been established.
Some patients in clinical trials of under-18s experienced withdrawal symptoms when stopping treatment with paroxetine. These symptoms were very similar to those observed in adults when stopping paroxetine (see section 3, “How to take Paroxetina Viatris”).
Suicidal thoughts and worsening of depression or anxiety disorders
If you are depressed and/or have anxiety disorders, you may sometimes have thoughts about harming yourself or committing suicide. These thoughts may increase at the beginning of treatment with antidepressants, as these medicines take time to become effective, usually around two weeks, but sometimes longer.
You may be more likely to have thoughts like these:
-
If you have previously had thoughts about suicide or self-harm.
-
If you are a young adult. Clinical trial data have shown an increased risk of suicidal behavior in psychiatric patients under 25 years of age who were being treated with an antidepressant.
If you have suicidal thoughts or thoughts of self-harm at any time, contact your doctor immediately or go to the nearest hospital.
It may be helpful to tell a close family member or friend that you suffer from depression or an anxiety disorder, and ask them to read this leaflet. You may ask them whether they think your depression or anxiety is worsening, or if they are concerned about possible behavioral changes you may experience.
Consult your doctor if you have any doubts.
Important adverse effects observed with Paroxetina Viatris
Some patients taking paroxetine develop akathisia, which consists of a feeling of inner restlessness accompanied by an inability to remain still. Other patients develop serotonin syndrome, characterized by the presence of some or all of the following symptoms: confusion, restlessness, sweating, tremors, chills, hallucinations (strange visions or sounds), sudden muscle jerks, or rapid heartbeat. If you experience any of these symptoms, contact your doctor. For more information on these adverse reactions or others related to paroxetine, see section 4, “Possible side effects”.
Some medicines in the same class as paroxetine (called SSRIs/SNRIs) may cause symptoms of sexual dysfunction (see section 4). In some cases, these symptoms persist after stopping treatment.
Other medicines and Paroxetina Viatris
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might need to take any other medicine.
Some medicines may alter the effect of paroxetine or make adverse effects more likely. Paroxetine may also alter the effect of other medicines. These include:
- Medicines called monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs, including moclobemide, used to treat depression, and methylene blue chloride (methylene blue)), see “Do not take Paroxetina Viatris” in this section.

Taking Paroxetina Viatris with food and alcohol
Do not drink alcohol while taking paroxetine. Alcohol may worsen your symptoms or side effects. Taking paroxetine in the morning with food will reduce the likelihood of feeling generally unwell (nausea).
Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine. Paroxetine is not recommended during pregnancy because it may harm the baby. Your doctor must decide whether it is better for you to switch to another treatment or gradually stop taking paroxetine during pregnancy. However, depending on your circumstances, your doctor may recommend continuing paroxetine.
Ensure your doctor or midwife knows that you are taking paroxetine. When taken during pregnancy, especially during the last three months, medicines like paroxetine may increase the risk of a serious condition in newborns called persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN), causing the baby to breathe faster and have bluish skin. These symptoms usually begin within the first 24 hours after birth. If this happens to your baby, you must contact your midwife and/or doctor immediately.
Symptoms include:
- Difficulty breathing.
- Bluish skin or appearance of being too hot or too cold.
- Bluish lips.
- Vomiting or difficulty feeding.
- Feeling very tired, trouble sleeping, or frequent crying.
- Muscle stiffness or floppiness.
- Tremors, irritability, or seizures.
- Exaggerated reflexes.
If your baby has any of these symptoms at birth or if you are concerned about your newborn’s health, contact your doctor or midwife, who will advise you.
If you take paroxetine in late pregnancy, there may be an increased risk of heavy vaginal bleeding shortly after delivery, especially if you have a history of bleeding disorders. Your doctor or midwife should know you are taking paroxetine so they can advise you.
Paroxetine may pass into breast milk in very small amounts. If you are taking paroxetine, inform your doctor before starting breastfeeding.
Animal studies have shown that paroxetine reduces sperm quality. Theoretically, this could affect fertility, but the impact on human fertility has not yet been observed.
Driving and using machines
Possible side effects of paroxetine include dizziness, confusion, drowsiness, or blurred vision. If you experience these side effects, do not drive or operate machinery.
Paroxetina Viatris contains sodium
This medicine contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per tablet; essentially “sodium-free”.
3. How to take Paroxetine Viatris
Follow exactly the instructions for use of this medicine given by your doctor or pharmacist. If in doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist again.
The recommended doses for the different conditions are specified below in the following table:
Initial dose | Recommended daily dose | Maximum daily dose | |
Depression | 20 mg | 20 mg | 50 mg |
Obsessive-compulsive disorder | 20 mg | 40 mg | 60 mg |
Panic disorder | 10 mg | 40 mg | 60 mg |
Social anxiety disorder | 20 mg | 20 mg | 50 mg |
Post-traumatic stress disorder | 20 mg | 20 mg | 50 mg |

Your doctor will tell you what dose to take when you start treatment with Paroxetine Viatris. Most people begin to feel better after a couple of weeks of treatment. If you do not improve within this time, inform your doctor, who will advise you on what to do. He or she may decide to gradually increase your dose by 10 mg at a time, up to a maximum daily dose.
Take your tablets in the morning with food. The tablets should not be chewed, but swallowed whole with water.
The score line is intended solely for ease of swallowing and breaking the tablet, and not for dividing into equal doses.
Your doctor will tell you how long you need to continue taking your tablets. This may be for several months or even longer.
Use in elderly patients
The maximum daily dose for elderly patients (over 65 years of age) is 40 mg per day.
Use in children and adolescents
Children and adolescents under 18 years of age should generally not take paroxetine unless your doctor has decided it is beneficial for them.
Patients with kidney or liver problems
If you have liver problems or severe renal impairment, your doctor may decide that you should take lower doses of paroxetine than usual.
If you take more Paroxetine Viatris than you should
In case of overdose or accidental ingestion, contact your doctor or pharmacist immediately or call the Toxicology Information Service at: 91 562 04 20, indicating the medication and the amount ingested. Never take more tablets than your doctor has recommended. Show them the medicine package.
Someone who has taken an overdose of paroxetine may experience some of the symptoms described in section 4, “Possible Side Effects,” or the following symptoms: vomiting, dilated pupils, fever, headache, uncontrollable muscle stiffness, and increased heart rate.
If you forget to take Paroxetine Viatris
Take your medication at the same time each day.
If you forget to take a dose and remember before going to bed at night, take it immediately. The next day, continue treatment as usual. If you remember during the night or the following day, do not take the missed dose. You may experience withdrawal effects, but these usually disappear after taking the next dose at the usual time. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed dose.
What to do if you do not improve
Paroxetine will not relieve your symptoms immediately—like all antidepressants, it takes time to start working. Some people begin to feel better within a couple of weeks, but others may take a little longer. Some people taking antidepressants feel worse before they start to improve. Your doctor should ask you to come in for a check-up about two weeks after starting treatment. Inform your doctor if you have not started to feel better.
If you stop treatment with Paroxetine Viatris
Do not stop your treatment with paroxetine until your doctor tells you to do so.
When you need to stop treatment with paroxetine, your doctor will help you gradually reduce your dose over several weeks or months—this should help reduce the likelihood of experiencing withdrawal symptoms. One way to do this is to gradually reduce your paroxetine dose by 10 mg per week. Most people find that any symptoms they experience when stopping paroxetine are mild and disappear on their own within about two weeks. For some people, these symptoms may be more severe or last longer.
If you experience withdrawal symptoms when stopping your tablets, your doctor may decide that you should stop treatment more slowly. If you experience severe withdrawal symptoms when stopping paroxetine, please see your doctor. He or she may ask you to start taking your tablets again and then stop more gradually.
Even if you experience some withdrawal effects, you may still be able to stop treatment with paroxetine.
Possible withdrawal symptoms when stopping treatment
