In reply to Re: My list of 17 side effects from Effexor XR 150mg, posted by Wendy1000 on October 27, 2004, at 21:29:45
I took 75mg for one and a half years.....I had the dizziness, nausea, felt like my head was full of rocks and lost 38 lbs. I only ate every third day or so. People stared at me, now I know that I looked anorexic. I,with the help of my pharmacist, worked my way off of Effexor. I tapered very, very, very slowly. Missing a dose would definitely be the cause of your symptoms also. My doctor wouldn't help me get off it. I understand that taking prozac while going off of it will help. Good luck, if you continue it or decide to get off it. Pat
