In reply to Any GOOD results from Effexor?, posted by brussell on December 14, 2003, at 14:45:29
Hi, as regards effexor XR: I've been on it for over three years and have not experienced any side effects enough to warrant discontinuing the drug. I did have some withdrawl discomfort when missing the dose for three days when I ran out of pills and did not get them refilled promptly. I felt like I had the flu; the pharmacist told me it was from not taking the effexor for three days.
The drug has been overall helpful to me. Have been on 225mg, and am on 300mg now and have been for several months. When the dose increased to 300mg, I did experience some sexual side effects, but they have gone away since.
Hope this helps.
