I'm surprised 41 comments have been posted and nobody has pointed this out... From Drugs.com... "What should I avoid while taking Paxil? Avoid drinking alcohol, which can increase some of the side effects of Paxil." http://www.drugs.com/paxil.html http://www.drugs.com/paxil.html From rxlist.com "...Alcohol Although PAXIL does not increase the impairment of mental and motor skills caused by alcohol, patients should be advised to avoid alcohol while taking PAXIL...." http://www.rxlist.com/paxil-drug.htm http://www.rxlist.com/paxil-drug.htm There usually a pretty good reason for medical warnings. Sherlock here made that pretty clear. He was warned not to drink alcohol. He drank. The side effects of the medication became more intense when mixed with alcohol just as he was told would happen. If you are warned by a doctor and/or pharmacist not to mix alcohol with a medication, then don't mix alcohol with that medication.
