Hi out there.
I've never posted before, but was looking for a site about effexor. I can't tolerate alcohol on effexor and I miss getting a slight buzz on every now and then. I've been taking 150 mg daily for almost a year now. A clueless "diet doctor" recommended I switch from prozac to effexor XR because he said prozac would keep me from losing the extra 25 pounds I wanted to lose. Well, I feel about the same as I did on the prozac but now I've gained ten more pounds, say stupid things after just two glasses of wine and have the occasional hot flash. I didn't dream about the effex causing my weight gain! I'm going to try to get off everything, but don't know how to go about tapering. Thoughts, suggestions anyone....
