Re: Easing Effexor Withdrawal Nausea?

It's very important to taper slowly off of Effexor, getting down to almost absurdly small amounts before quitting altogether.

If you've done that, then ask your doctor if it would be OK for you to try Compazine, which is often given for air or sea sickness. It is actually one of the older anti-psychotics, so you wouldn't want to take it continuously for months, but it is frequently prescribed for short-term treatment of nausea, and it is quite effective.

And don't forget good ol' Pepto-Bismol or its generic equivalent.

Best of luck,

Mark H.
