Weighing the pros and cons on taking Paxil, the horrible side effects seem to overshadow of what it is suppose to be of purpose. Instead of treating certain psychological disorders, it somehow worsen the condition.

Aside from the those listed in this article, the side effects of Paxil also includes increased thoughts of suicide, and complications for those with pre-existing heart conditions. It also causes birth defects on babies whose moms were taking paxil during pregnancy.
