> Hi, Hope you are as lucky as I am on effexor. If I had side effects when I started it, I don't remember. It has been a good drug for me. I take 187.5 mgs. Good luck. Terrics
Hi Terrics, thanks for the input and support. My question for you is how did you come to take a higher dose? Did you plateau on the lower doses or did you just keep going until your "ailments" (for lack of better words) were gone? And about how long have you been on it?
From other boards and people, it seems the trend is to be on this drug for about 4-8 months before it loses its affectiveness. Does anyone disagree? I hope that's truly not the case.
Thanks for your help... it's very appreciated!
