> why doesn't Wyatt=Ayerst warn prospective patients of how difficult and painful this drug is to stop ?
Bill - Wyeth-Ayerst has had withdrawl information in the CPS since at least 1999. They are legally covered, but if you are looking for someone to go after; perhaps your doctor should have told you about the withdrawl effects. Then again, the company has told most of the doctors about the withdrawl effects, but the doctors do forget, because most people who quit Effexor (esp. Effexor XR) have no withdrawl symptoms, and many that do, do not report them to their doctors. - Cam
