In reply to I need insight if this feeling is pristiq, posted by copper on August 26, 2008, at 10:43:57
i personally am not a very patient person but i know they say it can take even up to 4 weeks to see full benefits.
i personally think that two weeks you can kinda tell. but with you weaning off another it might make it harder to tell, what's withdrawl symptoms too.if you can hang in one more week i'd do it. otherwise give that doc a call. in fact i'd do that anyway and see what he/she says.
maybe they can augment it with something in the meantime? if you're on anything else maybe they can bump that up a little?i just started pristiq also, can't say i've noticed a whole difference but i have noticed something. S. thoughts are gone. (FINALLY)
and that's only four days.
but your coming off Effexor which is what i wwould see as much stronger than pristiq....??so point being hang in there, call doc, augment if can.
best wishes
