Anyone tapered off Effexor and used Prozac as a bridge?

I've tapered down from 150 mg Effexor daily to 37.5. The last taper caused awful withdrawal syndrome so I'm back up to 75 mg daily. I now think that using Prozac as a bridging med will help. Any advice on tapering off Prozac would be great. Thanks.

You don’t go from 150 to 37.5. You go from 150 to 115mg first. Then 75mg then 37.5 for about a 1 year.
