I only took Seroxat for two days due to constant nausea (which I was warned about) and inability to focus my eyes properly (which I wasn’t.) When I looked in the mirror I saw why - my pupils were constantly expanding and contracting. I told my doctor this was intolerable and I got put on a different antidepressant (venlafaxine, I think.)
