At least a week for it to start to clear up without taking *any* Effexor. And it didn't totally clear up for at least a couple of weeks. I imagine the time varies with individuals, and I would not hesitate to blame the Effexor for another 2-3 weeks or so...I believe it is one of the worst to get off of.
Good luck!

I've lost my sense of time) since I took my last half capsule and I still am thick headed and dizzy sometimes. I hate to still blame it on the Effexor, but I'm back to my regular Depakote and Klonopin dose and I can't imagine what it might be.
