Hi Neal,
I take regular Effexor once a day, because I need it to wear off some in order to sleep comfortably at night. If I forget to take my dose in the morning (for instance, if I don't have time to get breakfast), and don't take it until 3 or 4 in the afternoon, I not only have difficulty getting to sleep from having a busy mind half the night, but my legs, arms and hands ache and feel like they need to be flexed, stretched and exercised.
By taking the Effexor once a day, after breakfast, I sleep comfortably and well and yet maintain sufficient blood levels (with the potentiating meds I take) to have a very good anti-depressant effect.
Thank you for asking.
Mark H.
