Questions Re: Immune System?

In reply to Effexor withdrawal symptoms!, posted by Becky on October 2, 1999, at 22:03:30

I believe I successfully have successfully withdrawn from Effexor XR. After being on 75mg per day for just over a year, I began going on half doses, then half of half, and finally just stopped. I've been completely Effexor-less for about three weeks now and never really had any withdrawal symptoms.

I feel so terrible for those of you who experience the awful withdrawal described here. When my gynecologist told me I might experience withdrawal, I found this message board and prepared myself for the worst.

I don't know why some people experience the withdrawal and others don't.

QUESTION: Is it thought that Effexor weakens one's immune system? I just caught a monster case of bronchitis, and I don't smoke or anything like that. I do have asthma. I'm just wondering if my immune system might be in a weakened state from having been on the EffexorXR?
