Dear MHRA Team,

Whilst reading through the Patient Information Leaflet for Seroxat liquid - attached - I came across a line that is quite vague in its description, i.e.; there is no explanation.


The line in question is thus: [see red]

"If you feel restless and feel like you can’t sit or stand still, tell your doctor. Increasing the dose of Seroxat may make these feelings worse."

I don't know if the MHRA have the answer but why would increasing the dose of Seroxat make 'these feelings' worse?

The line would suggest that GlaxoSmithKline have evidence that shows an increase in Seroxat would make 'these feelings' worse. Could you provide me with such evidence please?



So,

Request under the FOI:

1. Why would an increase in Seroxat make the feelings of restlessness and not being able to sit or stand still worse?

and

2, Could you please provide the data that suggests this?



Many thanks
