    Weeks rather than days. How many I can't say as it comes down to individual biology. It takes about 5 days just for paroxetine plasma levels to stabilize again after a dose increase. But you might get the benefit of the placebo effect, so...

    Unfortunately, these are common initial side-effects of most ADs. In most cases they resolve in a week, or two. Over-the-counter preparations containing loperamide (Imodium) are usually effective for diarrhoea. If the anxiety levels get too severe contact your GP as it can be eased with short-term meds such as diazepam, or mirtazapine.

    Unfortunately, ADs can sometimes make things worse at the beginning, but usually the results are worth the unpleasantness.
