> Pristiq is weight neutral I didn't know that.
i think a side effect is actually weight loss. but my doc says its pretty neutral. but that all depends on your system and what other meds your on.
as for effexor i dont know the official side effects but i personally lost about 20lbs on that one. though i wasnt on it very long...wow, bad experience there.
i would guess since they both effect norepinephrine that it is very...activating.>>Doesn't regular effexor cause weight gain? My pdoc takes pristiq herself. How do you feel it compares to my ridiculously low dose of luvox that won't let me go. ll years and it's got a hold on me. Thanks Phillipa.
sorry dont really know anything about luvox.
that's one i haven't been on. and i think i was actually told not to try that one...cant remember why. it was a while ago.
it might be because it is an ssri and effexor/pristiq is SNRI.
ive had pretty poor luck on ssri's.
