Hi, this is my very first post on this site and I need some help. Both of my teenagers are on Pristiq and it really is not the best thing for them. Could someone please give me ideas, step by step on how to wean them off?
TIA

Tracie, are your teenagers also wanting to get off desvenlafaxine (Pristiq)? Do you and they have a trusted medical professional to help you with tapering off the medication and providing support for their mental wellbeing?
