In reply to Prozac vs Effexor, posted by Shenandoah on February 16, 2008, at 20:39:48
Well first let me welcome you to babble where you will find a wealth in information probably not from me but others. I can only reiterate what you said in your thread that prozac worked for you and love that pdoc but for some reason had to change you did mention anger but not the prozac not continuing to work as an antidepressant and help you anxiety. But for some reason changed docs and he put you on effexor and you have gained a lot of weight and would like to return to prozac if it will once again work am I right so far if not correct me please and are afraid of effexor withdrawal. I am not positive but prozac being a long acting antidepressant may help with effexor withdrawal so you may have good luck switching back to prozac. Also check the withdrawal board for things others have used or google withdrawal effexor on Dr Bob side of site and the best of luck to you as you seem to do well on SSRI's. Phillipa
