Switching from Prozac to Effexor

Posted by Vasilis on January 3, 2012, at 17:50:55

I am tired of my doctors advice on medication. I am currently at 40mg of prozac and i feel depressed. I want to take Effexor, but my doctor thinks i am ok with prozac. So, i am thinking to try Effexor by myself, i know it sounds stupid but i am tired of my depression. What do you think?
Should i tapper off prozac and take the Effexor 75mg? I am thinking of stopping Prozac, and start take Effexor 75mg. I am worried a little about prozac's long half life and if it could cause serotonin syndrome if i also take effexor...
I appreciate your help.
