> Currently I have been prescribed by my General MD and Med Doc, and am taking each day the following: Paxil 40mg in morning, augmented with Wellbutrin SR 150mg, 1mg Klonopin 3xday, Ritalin 10mg 2xday, 0.5mg Ativan as needed, and Inderal for Performance or Anticipatory anxiety.

> I have only been at the target dosage of 40mg of Paxil for three weeks. Often it can take six weeks at the target dosage for GAD treatment. We used a three week build up to the 40mg dose. So I believe that you have to stay the course with Paxil for twelve weeks before for switching to another med. Unless the side effects are to severve to continue of course.
