Can Remeron mask Effexor side effects ?

Posted by goldenslumbers on July 11, 2005, at 11:09:50

Hi Everyone,

I have anxiety and this is my first attempt at treatment. GP started Effexor 4 months ago, now at 75 mg. He later added Remeron for sleep, 7.5 mg.

I took it for three weeks but Remeron made me very sleepy during the day so he advised me to stop. After 1 week everything was good. Now insomnia is back and nausea is very strong, just like the Effexor startup symptoms.

I need some advice for getting through this, my GP is on holiday and I'm not sure what to do next.

Is it possible Remeron masked the nausea of Effexor and I need to adjust again ?

Can I drop down to 37.5 of Effexor to get relief from side effects ?

What else can I do ?

I really don't like these medications. My anxiety caused very similar symptoms but now I don't know if it is anxiety or medication. I would like to stop but I have not heard many success stories.

All input appreciated, Thank you
