Hello!
Constipation is known side effect of Paxidep 25. You should try drinking at least 8 glasses of water (250 ml each) everyday. Also take a glass of warm water in the morning. You could also increase your intake of fresh fruit & vegetable. Over the counter laxatives and stool softeners like Cremaffin liquid or Smuth liquid may be tried if the above measures do not work.
Hope this helped
