High Doses of Effexor

Posted by The_Great_Santini on November 8, 2002, at 17:42:03

Is anyone on, or have they been on, a combo of Effexor 450 mg/day and Wellbutrin 400 mg/day?

I don't know why it's taking such high dosages just to keep me "normal", but I've been on Effexor for about a year and a half. It's been wonderful.

Thanks to anyone for your thoughts.

um, wow. your p-doc is brave.

Mine said he would give me 150/day of XR because SP needs "higher doses." 6 weeks later and no effects, I upped to 225/day, and hopefully this will kick in or something... he's probably going to just combine wellbutrin or something rather than give 400....

gee, I dunno. I guess, if no side effects, and it works, more power to you. It still scares me, though... which is weird. I take Desoxyn =)
