[quote=Anonymous]NP, but does everyone think PCPs are fine to handle medication for low-level depression and anxiety? I need to switch my dad off of Paxil (explained below). I don't think mine or OPs parent would do the psychiatrist route! Thanks! ====longer post===== My father with dementia has been on Paroxetine (Paxil) for 10 years and now I learn it's known as an "anticholinergic" (can cause poor coordination, confusion, basically exacerbate dementia). I'm upset bc withdrawal off of it is terrible, so now I have to help my dad tackle that.[/quote]
