I'm into my third session with venlafaxine, each of the others sessions lasted over six months. The first time it was raising by blood pressure too much. The second time was to try another med. This time, its not affecting my blood pressure, and I'm staying with it.

I had no problems whatsoever in discontinuing venlafaxine. My doc had me reduce the dose by 1/4 every 4 to 5 days. At the same time a replacement med was started at 1/4 of an initial target dose, and was increased by 1/4 every 4 to 5 days.
