I currently take Effexor XR 37.5 and I have had no problems in the least. I had breast cancer and can no longer take hormones. All of my menapausal symptoms came back twice as bad. With Effexor my hot flashes have subsided to a minimum and I feel 100X better. No more mood swings or anything. The one thing I can tell you is this. NEVER just stop taking it becasue you can get really sick. It's also dangerous! I am weaning myself off of the pills because I no longer have insurance. They are VERY expensive. I have one month left and I am now taking them every 3 days. I started at every other day. Boy can I tell the difference. I am tired, more irritable and worst of all, I have the severe hot flashes back. To be straight...I feel like crap!
I hope this helps. I feel so much better when taking them.
