Milpharm Paroxetine 20mg – 30 Film-Coated Tablets
Milpharm Paroxetine 20mg contains paroxetine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) used in the treatment of depression and various anxiety-related disorders. It works by helping restore the balance of serotonin, a natural chemical in the brain that influences mood, emotions, and behaviour.
