Hi Scott,
What has been your experience with effexor?
My last try was in the hospital. They pulled me off of oxycontin in one day and titrated me up to 150mg of effexor in two days. I kept blacking out everytime I got up; they blamed that on the detox from oxy (no one even helped me--like I deserved to black out and fall--bad drug addict person that I was). In reality, I'm sure my blackouts were from going up too fast, too high on effexor; I had never before blacked out from getting off an opiate, even in one day.
I'd like to see a study with effexor matched against Duloxetine, but I don't see the advantage to Wyeth-Ayerst Laboratories in participating.
