The increase in the marginal trend reversal of Paroxetine Total Prescriptions in 2002 correlates with: -

3 UK – The Observer February 3, 2002 article “Hard habit to break”, Mark Harvey, of Hugh James Solicitors, Cardiff; instigates further publicity of the adverse drug reactions (ADRs), side effects and withdrawal problems, connected with the Seroxat --- but common to all drugs in the SSRI / SNRI class.
