Effexor XR - 37.5 a day for 8 years now

Posted by slam on June 4, 2006, at 15:49:42

Hello,
I have been taking 37.5 a day of Effexor forever. So much so that I really don't know if I need it, but, don't know how to get off of it. My Dr. isn't sure either. Once I tried to reduce intake gradually, but felt really strange, majorly uneasy, so my Dr told me to go back to the regular dosage. Had anyone tried to stop taking it and if so how, what, and why? Did you get off of it and what were your complications and method of doing it? I would be interested in anyones feedback. Thanks

Welcome! And sorry if it's confusing here, but I'd like to redirect this thread to Psycho-Babble Withdrawal. Here's a link:
