I am taking time released Paxil in the evening daily and I am wondering...,

Since it is time released and I had the WLS, is my body absorbing it? I heard that time released pills are no good for WLS patients and if this is true than I am not getting the full benefits of this drug and perhaps I should tell my doctor to give me non-time release pills. Do you guys agree? Am I losing the full potency of the Paxil since it is time released? Should I request a Paxil medication that is not time released? I want to get the full benefits of this medication and not have to worry about my body not fully absorbing it! Tell me what you think! Hope to get replies! Thanks, Shirley
