I have been on Effexor for 7 years and I stopped seeing my psychiatrist because I did not like her and she had given me a hundred 50 mg of Effexor well my primary care physician had given me 75 I have now run out of the prescription of 150 mg and no one will refill it and I don't know what to do

@wandasophia if I'm understanding correctly, you are still taking 150 mg? Or did you go from 150 to 75 when you changed doctors?

Hello!
You have 2 choices (that I know of) to get your prescriptions, from your PCP or a psychiatrist.
If you don't like who you went to, try another.
