What is Paroxetine hydrochloride?
Paroxetine hydrochloride/ Paroxetine HCL is a type of antidepressant known as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It's often used to treat depression, and sometimes obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), panic attacks, anxiety or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Paroxetine helps many people recover from depression, and it has fewer unwanted effects than older antidepressants. Paroxetine is available on prescription. It comes as tablets and as a liquid that you swallow.
