> i can answer about lower doses....i take 75mg per day and if i miss a dose, i have the electrical shock things in my neck and head.......i hate it!and now that i'm reading how hard it is to get off of.....i'm going to talk to my doc and try to switch to something else. my pharmacist told me yesterday that since i've lost alot of weight that she thinks my dosage is too high...so today i split a capsule and so far so good...i was glad to read that i could try benadryl, etc. because i sure don't like the shocky feeling! patEEEKKK, i'm having the little shocky things in my neck with the 37.5 dose but am hanging in there. my head doesn't feel like it is full of rocks now and i don't have the constant headache that i was having...so maybe my phar was right and my dosage was too high. help me get through this adjustment. i want this to work desperately!! i can't afford effexor as it is and this will really help my expenses.....xoxoxo
