My son was taking the effexor exactly as prescribed. The coroner checked for appropriate traces in his system. So sometimes, even though you are taking drugs exactly the way the doctor prescribed them, they can be deadly.

When you know all the risks of the particular drug you are taking, then you can, of course, take them more effectively. The withdrawal effects are listed right on the insert, so I assume you knew what you would be facing before starting to go off them.????
