> A most excellent combo for effexor and paxil withdrawl has been a combo of prozac and nortriptyline. Prozac has the long half-life, and the nortriptyline looks after the norepinephrine problem that effexor and even paxil (and now with Cymbalta) can bring. 25-50 mg of Nortriptyline seems to help.

> JayJay, thanks for this info. I took Prozac about a year before I took Effexor and had no problems or withdrawal symptoms when I stopped taking it. Your combo of Prozac and Nortriptyline sounds promising. How long do you suggest taking this combo and what dosage of Prozac, 20 mg? Thanks!
