Paxil Differences

Are paxil and paxil hydrochloride the same thing? I've seen hydrochloride on a pill bottle, but I have never seen it on my prescription bottle before.

Yes, they are the same, Paxil Hydrochloride is just the longer name for it, the Hydrochloride designates the precise chemical salt it was derived from during manufacturing.

The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and weight changes.

Some pharmacies list it on the labels, some don't.

Is there anything else I can help with?
