http://www.medications.com/effect/view/28595 I have been taking this drug 75mg everyday for 6 months. at first I was feeling so much better. This past winter I have been sick constantly. I almost never get sick and I have had every virus that has went around. now I am feeling so weird sleep disturbanc Fri, 28 Mar 2008 23:45:49 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/28595?item=6108 getting off of effexor is the best advice i think anyone can give. i am on my 3rd day of stopping cold. i took 150 mg for about 5 months, but a month ago he suggested i go up to 300 mg. BAAAD idea. i felt awful, so i went back to the 150 mg. after hea http://www.medications.com/effect/view/28595?item=6108 Fri, 27 Jun 2008 08:05:56 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/28595?item=9584 I would say that 75mg is not high enough dose to help with remission, but it is enough to have side effects. Ask you Dr. about upping dose to 150mg / day or try the new medication Pristiq50mg once a day. It is cleaner on the side effects than effexor xr http://www.medications.com/effect/view/28595?item=9584
