I agree that Pristiq is a prissy sounding name. Sounds like a birth control pill or something. I am a male. I did take Effexor up to 300 mg. The side effects were horrible. I think I've read that Pristiq's effect on noradrenalin is many times stronger than that of Effexor. The doc told me that the 100mg Pristiq is approximate to 300mg Effexor but without the side effects. He was right in my case. I think it's effect on serotonin to noradrenalin ratio is what I needed.
