I sound like a gangsta, lol.
But, I just wanted to note that Pristiq 100mg. gives you venlafaxine 150mg., which is basically threshold NE activity. You'll either need to get your doctor to prescribe more than the suggested limit of Pristiq at 150mg. to get to 300mg. venlafaxine which is the targeted NE dose. This might go against insurance quantity dispensed limits as well.
The real way to obtain the NE effect is venlafaxine extended-release capsules 300ng. Or Pristiq 150mg.
Good luck with your treatment, and please let me know if you have further questions I'm very knowledgable lol.
