Break the tablets in half and then quarters. If this is a problem ask your Dr. for the 37 1/2 capsules and open them up and split them that way. Don't come off effexor too fast and the withdrawls won't be so bad. It took me 2 months to stop from 75mg and I think that was too fast. I've been off 3 months now and feel so much better. While going through the withdrawls I was tempted to start taking it again just to end the horrible effects of the withdrawl, but I am so glad now that I didn't. I have so much energy now. Hang in there, it does get better.
