I've been taking seroxat for 8 months. I feel much better, but I would like to stop taking the drug because I am planning a pregnancy. How long after stopping the drug would I get pregnant?
Paroxetine (Seroxat) stays in the blood for 1-2 days, so no "quarantine" is needed. But the drug must be discontinued slowly to avoid unpleasant withdrawal symptoms, which are especially common after this drug. Regards!
