What it is

Paroxetine is a non-hormonal option for reducing menopause-related hot flashes and night sweats. Paroxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) and works by increasing the amount of serotonin activity in the brain. This allows for better body temperature regulation, which can also contribute to improved sleep.

What to expect

The time it takes to respond to paroxetine will vary by person. Most women begin to feel the benefits of treatment, incuding a reduction in hot flashes and night sweats, within 4-6 weeks. They may also notice better sleep quality as a result.

How to use

Paroxetine is taken once a day by mouth. Ideally, it should be taken at the same time every day to have the most consistency in your dosing. For specific information on usage, consult your provider and reference the packaging insert(s) included with your medication.

FAQs

What is paroxetine?

Paroxetine, an SSRI commonly used as an antidepressant, has shown efficacy in treating menopausal symptoms, particularly vasomotor symptoms like hot flashes and night sweats. Paroxetine is often prescribed for menopausal women who seek non-hormonal treatments for these symptoms, offering an alternative to traditional hormone replacement therapies.

How does paroxetine work?

Paroxetine works by moderating the body's core temperature through vasodilation, which involves the widening of blood vessels. This mechanism helps to reduce the intensity and frequency of hot flashes. And thereby, may also improve sleep by reducing night disruptions.

When should I expect to see results with paroxetine?

The time it takes for paroxetine to alleviate menopausal symptoms, like mood swings and hot flashes, can vary from person to person. Many women report experiencing relief within a few weeks of starting treatment, while others may take longer to notice a significant improvement. It's essential to discuss expectations and progress with your Evernow provider, as the response to paroxetine can differ based on individual factors and the specific symptoms being addressed.

What is the typical dosage of paroxetine?

Dosage of paroxetine for menopausal symptom management varies based on the individual's needs. Typically, for mood swings and hot flashes, we prescribe a 7.5 mg oral dose. Your exact dosage will be determined by your Evernow provider based on your specific needs and response to the treatment. It is important to adhere to the prescribed dosage and schedule provided by your Evernow provider.

How do I know if paroxetine for menopause symptoms is right for me?

To determine if paroxetine is appropriate for you in managing symptoms of menopause, consult with your Evernow provider. They will consider your specific symptoms, medical history, and overall health to help you make an informed decision and discuss potential risks and benefits. Factors such as the severity of mood swings or hot flashes, your response to previous treatments, and any existing health conditions are essential considerations.

What are possible side effects of paroxetine?

Paroxetine, like any medication, can cause side effects. Common side effects of paroxetine can include nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth, dizziness, and sexual dysfunction, while less common but potentially serious side effects may involve serotonin syndrome, suicidal thoughts, or an increased risk of bleeding. Consulting your Evernow provider about any concerns or side effects is crucial for appropriate management and evaluation of the treatment's safety.
