I was at 225 mg E-XR and let go of 1 capsule of 75mg first week. 2nd week started Prozac along with cutting back another 75mg Effexor. Stayed on that regime for two weeks and then off the Effexor and stayed on the Prozac for two more week; taking it every other day towards the end of the 2nd week. Then every 3rd day for another week and then I just stopped it altogether when the prescription ran out. No side effects from quitting the Prozac that I could tell.
