Is it possible to get Paxil in Japan? How much does it cost there and how does one go about it?

It is a mild anti-anxiety, anti-depressant medication (a la Prozac, Zoloft, etc)

I can't speak for Paxil, but I have been to a doctor and have been prescribed exactly the same medications as I used back home. The procedure is exactly the same as in other countries.
