> I would like to raise my effexor dosage and am not really afraid of tapering if it dosnt work. I have read people saying that they had bad side effects if they missed their dose by a couple of hours. I dont have that. I take it before I go to bed and sometimes that varies by a few hours depending on what I am doing. I never really have any of the horrendous effects that I have read.
