I've been on Paxil for a few months and my blood pressure, which used to be normal, is now 140-150/87-94. I've also gained 40 pounds. My pdoc attributes the high blood pressure to the weight, although I've been this weight before and still always had good blood pressure.
I've done searches to provide my pdoc with evidence that Paxil can cause high blood pressure, but I've come up short, except for anecdotal evidence. Does anyone know of an actual study or web site that talks about this? Thanks!
