In reply to Going from Zoloft to Efexor?, posted by Mike Dickinson on September 16, 1999, at 10:30:28
Mike,
I successfully went from Zoloft to Efexor. The waiting period for these is to be Zoloft free for 3 days before starting the Efexor. I went cold turkey off the Zoloft for the 3 days and coped fine. The dosage of 75mg of venlafaxine is the starting dose. I was on 150mg of Zoloft when I changed. The Efexor has been fantastic! Find out why your Dr wants to change them so badly. They do also act on more neurotransmitters than the Zoloft.
Good Luck
Alison.
