In reply to Effexor withdrawal and prozac, posted by Tesssi on May 27, 2004, at 20:24:55
> I am new to this board and would like to know if anyone has used prozac to help with the effects of coming off of effexor? I tapered down to 37.5mg over a period of 3 months and then stopped taking it as directed. The withdrawal was pure hell. I went to a different doctor today who gave me prozac to take in hopes of easing the withdrawal effects. Has this worked for anyone? I am trying to get off effexor AGAIN tomorrow with the help of prozac and am scared of the effects. They were horrific. Please let me know if anyone has used prozac in this way and if it helped. Any other advice??? Thanks.
here is the antidepressant withdrawal article again if you have not seen it:
