> > Iv just been told by my pdoc to go up to 300mg efexor. Iv been on them overall about 4 months as Iv been increasing very slowly. Basically Im just interested in anyone elses experience with the drug. Did you notice any different side effects at this high dose? Or was there a dramatic change in depression for anyone? Anyone have no success at 225mg but then find that 300mg was the right dose?!

>I went from 150 to 225 mg. but got no additional antidepressant effect. I got an increase in blood pressure at that point, which wasn't too bad, but I didn't want to risk going up to 300 esp. when I didn't see any additional benefit to increasing dosage the previous time.
I'd be curious to know if it helps you though.
Panda,
What is the "brain fade" that you experienced?-K
