Hi I recently started paxil again after 2 years due to having very severe anxiety attacks. I have now been on paxil for 4 weeks and am starting to have very bad vissual snow. My vission is very hazy specially in the dark looks almost like camera noise. Now I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced this whilst starting up paxil will it fade with time or is it here to stay ? I've been on.paxil twice in.the past and have never had this side effect

Hello, Rommy! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem that you're having.

Yes, Paxil can cause vision issues, as listed among the side effects provided by the FDA. Even if you've never experienced them before, our bodies do change with time, so it's always possible to experience new side effects to a medication, or have a new reaction to something.

Other side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and weight gain.

Side effects are usually transient and start to taper off around 4 to 5 weeks in and then go away entirely. However, if they do not, you will need to consult your doctor as you may need to try a different medication.

Is there anything else I can help with?
