My doctor helped me successfully wean off Pristiq

Hi, really happy I found this thread. I’m currently weaning off pristiq, just went from 100mg/50mg every other day to 50 mg every day. I’m from Canada and the lowest dose is 50mg, so I’m nervous about the next steps. It’s nice to know other people have successfully done it! This drug was definitely not worth all the stress and anxiety.

Hi @hburrows - just wanted to check in with you and see how you've been feeling in your weaning off process during the last couple of days?

@hburrows Im down to 20mg from a compounding pharmacy . Id like to just stop now, cant get rid of the kilos, its only 7 but frustratinwhen Ive cut down my food intake. I didnt eat heaps anyway! I should go down to 10mg daily but has anyone stopped on 20mg. Ive read so many with hard times removing this drug and pharmacists have confirmed this witn me! 😟
