Increasing Efexor XR dose

Posted by pretty_paints on April 13, 2004, at 17:42:38

I just wanted to know, how long did people here wait between increasing their dose of Efexor? Iv been on 75mg for 3 weeks and wondered if Im going to be able to increase to 150mg after a month. Did people here take longer or shorter times than this? What have been your experiences in doing this?

My GP said he wouldnt really want to go above 150mg. I know that you can, but I wondered why this reluctance? Im in the UK if that makes any difference. Has anybody else from the UK had a similar thing? Someone told me something about using only being able to administer over 150mg to patients actually in hospital (which im not). Is that really true??

My GP is refering me to a pyschiatrist though, so maybe he will have different opinions.

And also, how do the dose increases feel? Does it start to affect OCD at a higher dose? Please give me some feedback! The 75mg has only helped a very little.

thanks xx
