Renee,
I have addressed it.
This is the same sort of verbiage as saying that one should be a Democrat or a Republican. I don't believe that Effexor does anything good in comparison to the kinds and numbers of people that are being harmed by it. No, Renee, I cannot see otherwise. Sorry.
You must have missed the places where I posted that it is good for people under some circumstances. I will repeat that it is good for people under some circumstances...not for most of us, not for the average person, not for the volume of prescriptions that make it one of the four to six most widely prescribed drugs in the country today. I just do not believe that it is. I do not think that it would be as widely prescribed as it had been in the past if Wyeth had been more forthcoming with its research about the side effects and the withdrawal problems.
You may feel differently. That is, indeed, your right.
