I am taking paroxetine 12.5 mg with Clonazepam o.5 mg. But I have heard I have to take it lifelong and there are so much side effects. How can I get rid of it.

Dear lybrate-user, How long the medication will continue depends upon why you are taking them and what is the severity of your symptoms. Usually the anti depressants are taken for at least 6 months and then it has to be continued depending on your response to medications. If you are suffering from side effects please consult psychiatrist who can adjust the dose or change the medication. Thanks
