Tips on minimizing withdrawal symptoms from Effexor (aka Venlafaxine)

Yeah, I realized that it left my body and all I was doing was stretching out until the symptoms started. I take an XR and they don’t make any other dosage smaller according to my Dr. I am not disciplined enough to count out the beads and honestly just want to be off of it. I have never had anxiety or other issues so it was prescribed just to help my depression. As long as I can manage the brain shivers then I feel I can be off of them 100%.

Upon research, I’ve discovered there are compounding pharmacies that will offer tapered doses that will take out the guesswork of weaning off this high powered medicine. Walgreens Pharmacy does not compound, but I have found other pharmacies in Ft. Lauderdale that do. I’ll be checking these out over the next few days.
