The present invention provides a delayed and/or controlled release formulation of paroxetine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof that is formulated to release a substantial portion of the active ingredient (e.g., paroxetine) in the large intestine of an individual in need thereof. In one embodiment, the present invention provides a controlled release paroxetine composition comprising paroxetine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in a controlled release swallow pharmaceutical formulation, that upon administration, releases the paroxetine substantially in the large intestine. For example, the controlled release paroxetine formulation may be formulated to release greater than about 50% of the paroxetine in the large intestine.
