In reply to From Paxil to Effexor XR, posted by Mary H on July 8, 2000, at 22:18:19
> For seven years I was on 60mg. of Paxil. Eleven days ago, I was taken off this, cold turkey, and put on Effexor XR, 75mg. I have experienced something like vertigo, and nausea, my head feels very stuffed up, and some sight problems. Is this the withdrawal from Paxil, or the beginning on Effexor XR? Any help would be much appreciated.
Perhaps your doctor would allow you to decrease the Paxil more slowly while you increase the Effexor. I am not aware of any reason why this could not be done.
