Pharmacological action

Paxil - antidepressant. Selectively blocks the reuptake of serotonin, increases its concentration in the synaptic cleft and causes an antidepressant effect.

Has low affinity for muscarinic cholinergic receptors, for alpha-1, alpha-2, beta-adrenergic receptors, as well as 5-HT_1-like, 5-HT_2-like and histamine (H_1) receptors.

Does not violate psychomotor functions and does not potentiate the inhibitory effect of ethanol on them. The antidepressant effect appears after 7-14 days of systematic administration. During treatment, there is a decrease in anxiety, depression, and normalization of sleep.

- Treatment (including maintenance and prophylactic therapy) of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in adults, as well as in children and adolescents aged 7-17 years (it has been shown that the drug remains effective in treating OCD for at least 1 years and in the prevention of relapse of OCD).

- Treatment (including supportive and preventive therapy) of a panic disorder with agoraphobia and without it (the effectiveness of the drug persists for 1 year, preventing relapse of panic disorder).
