: I just read that Paxil can cause side effects like hair pulling . He did start pulling hair right after he started taking Paxil . He has been taking it for almost 2 weeks now ... Does anyone else have any experiences with this medication ??? Thank you DeAnna in Georgia :)

REPLY:Do inform and ask your prescribing Dr. about that but in the meantime, you can give them folic acid supplement and evening prinrose ol to see if will even out his aggressiveness. Also, the B6 with b complex and magnesium vitamins are calming. None of those suppliments witll interfere wih his meds. Grandma Peg
