I was excited to try Brisdelle 7.5mg Capsules to manage my hot flashes and night sweats during menopause. The doctor explained that it contains paroxetine, an SSRI typically used as an antidepressant, but in this case, it's meant to help regulate body temperature. I've been taking it for a few weeks now, and I'm not sure if it's working. Has anyone else used this medication? I'd love to hear your experiences, both good and bad. Specifically I want to hear about side effects. I've read about some potentially serious ones, but my doctor downplayed them. Should I be worried?
