Hi everybody,

I'm taking Paxil 20mg, and i'm always feel really tired during the day between 9am - 10pm (almost all day).

Right now i'm taking it on 8pm every evening, does anyone know if i'll change the taking time (to the morning maybe) it's will cause me to be tired at night and not at day?

Thanks

I recommend talking to your psychiatrist before any change in your medication. Otherwise, I have not taken Paxil.

I take 40mg a day and I've changed the time I take it and doesn't seem to make a difference. I don't know how long you've been on it but the sleepiness I felt in the begining went away.

How long have you been on it? I took it in the morning, and i was tired all day. But it went away in about 2 months. Ask your pdoc about the morning time. Could be the "hangover" effect some people such as myself get from meds.

Yes, important to think about how long you've been on it. Could just be a side effect that will go away. I believe switching it to the morning would not help but you could always try. Ask your doc.

These tablets are specially formulated to work on the cranial system over the course of time so it the exact timing doesn't matter when you take the tablets as long as you don't forget to take the correct dose every day.
