Need Advice: Switching from Effexor to Paxil

Posted by MDR on March 11, 2002, at 10:11:44

I am currently on 75m./day of Effexor for GAD and moderate OCD -- been on it for two weeks. My doctor is talking about moving me to Paxil instead of Effexor and feels I can just stop cold turkey on the Effexor on one day and start taking Paxil the next day. Do I need to be tapered off the Effexor for awhile before taking the Paxil?
