What Are The Side Effects/withdrawal From Venaxx?
Hi, I would like to help my lady friend to stop taking venaxx, after personal trauma some 3 years ago she was put on two venaxx xl 75 one in the mornind and one at night. She was also taking 3 x buspirone 5mg.and 2 x diazipam 2mg. daily, these were easy because i cut the number down over a 6 month period and she is now free of these, she was also taking zolpidem 2 x 10mg. on a night - these were also easy to get her off by the same method eventually ending up with just half a tablet and then none. I am more concerned about the side effects/withdrawell from the venaxx and how best if i should at all reduce the amount gradualy - - needless to say that previous experiance with her doctors has been fruitless - Regards Paul

Do not stop venaxx or venlaflaxine or reduce the dose even if you are feeling better without theadvice from your consultant.If he/she feels with reduce the dose slowly before stoping it slowly.stopping it abruptly or reducing the dose quickly can cause side effects like tiredness,dizziness,light headedness,nausea,diarhoea,agitation,seizures,ringing in ears,confusions etc.
please consult your doctor to discontinue it by slowly tappering it of over period of time.
hope thiswill answer your query.
