In reply to Re: My list of 17 side effects from Effexor XR 150mg, posted by Lyrical13 on October 18, 2004, at 16:48:17
I started tapering today and will be off Effexor in about 3 weeks when I will slowly phase in Lamictal. My doctor said that it is a mood stabilizer with strong AD qualities and that it is often used for those with treatment resistant depression and a low tolerance on other AD's - ME!
I know little about the drug and am nervous of the skin rash side effect which if toxic can kill you!
Any thoughts on this change would be appreciated. I will eventually be taking 50mg Lamictal twice a day.
