In reply to Paxil to Effexor - anyone ?, posted by ben on May 26, 2002, at 13:15:06
Hi Ben, I was on Paxil about a year ago and felt well on it mentally,but the constant nausea was quite severe so I stopped Paxil and started Effexor35.7mg.the next day with no problems.I was raised gradualy to 150mg.over the next month. It certainly helped with my depression but,like you,I noticed increased agitation-short temper so my pdoc advised me to begin my clonazepam 0.5mg/tid. I've been on and off clonaz.for over 11 years now. That helped slightly so he now has me on Effexor75mg.- Remeron15mg.- Clonazepam0.5md/tid. It's been 2 weeks now and I feel much better. I'll be decreasing the clonazepam,hopefully stopping it as I stabalize with the Remeron. Any help? Rick.
