Working Well for Our Sweet Leonard
From UndisclosedComments about Paroxetine (Generic) 10mg TabletOur poor little Leonard had to have his tail amputated to keep him from seriously injuring himself due to his severe feline hyperesthesia syndrome. The doctor recommended Paroxetine to keep him calm and reduce recurrence of flare-ups after the surgery. They seem to work very well for him! -

Helps with Anxiety & Neurotic Behaviors
From UndisclosedComments about Paroxetine (Generic) 20mg TabletMy dog suffers with anxiety, fear-based barking, sporadic twitching, constant licking and biting on his own arms/legs. After speaking with my vet and switching him from Clomicalm to Paroxetine, it was a much better fit for his symptoms. Vet Rx Direct was prompt with contacting my vet for the prescription fill, and shipping was super fast! Plus, the medication is highly affordable! -

Great service

Is it okay to use with homeopathic Anxietrex? My vet approved this, but has now added paroxetine 5 mg. She seems a bit sedated from this. I do not give them at the same time. I give the paroxetine in the morninfg around 8:30 and the Anxietrex around 12:30. Maybe I should give the Anxietrex at the evening meal??
-
There is currently no data to state that an interaction exists between paroxetine and Anxietrex in pets, but since Anxietrex is a homeopathic supplement there is the possibility of an interaction since the process of producing Anxietrex is not regulated by the FDA. Paroxetine has been reported to cause sedation in humans so it is possible that this drug is part of the reason your pet seems sedated. It may be wise to give the paroxetine at the evening meal and see how that affects your pet. If you have further concerns about a potential drug interaction, contact your veterinarian.
