> I've been on effexor for almost a year and am now at 150mg per day. I found that adding a soluble fiber such as Metamucil makes you much more comfortable. For some reason, the problems seem to come and go, but increased water intake and eating more fruit and veg on a daily basis should also help. And exercise will help, too, as will yoga.

> pcThanks for your advices but as I writed fibre and lot of water doesnt helped me. I tried several brands like Metamucil or Colosan etc. with enough water and slowly encreasing the regimen. I went Jogging half an hour and Swimming half an hor each week in addition with none success ! I am a pharmacist myself so I know a lot of therapies but nothing worked really to my sadisfaction.
Anyway thanks a lot for your goodwillben
