Answers:
I was on Effexor XR for almost two years. I've been off and doing well for the past two years. I remember getting a slight headache, and weird leg twitching at night. Make sure you're weaning yourself off slowly, and with your doctors help! I was prescribed a 75mg dose which I took daily, when I felt ok and had no symptoms of my recurring depression and anxiety my doctor gave me a 37.5 dose. That too I took daily, and when I felt comfortable I was told to take it every other day and so on. Weaning is supposed to be a slow process. I was on Effexor XR for almost two years and it took almost a year to be completely off of all medication.
