Posted by Beth on July 04, 2000 at 15:12:47:Hi All;
I just started taking Paxil about two weeks ago for depression, and I'm finding that my restless legs have become nightmarish! I'm not falling asleep until 4 or 5 am, and I walk around feeling like a zombie. I've had restless legs for about 10 years now, starting in my early thirties, but they have never been this bad consistently. I'm on 20 mg of Paxil and have just started cutting it down to 10 mg, hoping that it will continue to help my depression while giving my restless legs some relief.
Anyone out there experience this while on Paxil? Any suggestions? This is one case where misery doesn't love company, because I hate to think that anyone else out there has to go through this!
