Medicine advice

Asked for Female, 42 Years

My son was places on 20 mg of generic paxil today. he has never taken anything like this before. when we got home today i gave him one and he went to sleep. since he woke up he has been dizzy, nauseous , jittery, and vomited. i was wondering if it would be acceptable to give him 1/2 a pill (10mg) for a week THEN give him 20 mg a day to ease his body into having this in his system.
