![]() ![]() If you have problems with your liver or kidneys your doctor might prescribe a lower dose. The usual starting dose for venlafaxine is 75mg a day but your doctor may gradually increase it to a maximum dose of 375mg. Slow release tablets and capsules are released into your system gradually. Standard tablets release the venlafaxine into your system as soon as you swallow them. You are in the best position to judge how much you can handle and how much you should be handling.Venlafaxine tablets and capsules can be either standard or slow release. Hang in there, keep your wits about and get in touch with your doctor if you feel anything is off. This is usually why it 'gets worse before it gets better'. That is repressed emotion that is largely subconscious. The worst of ven adjustment should not take too long - perhaps another 2 weeks at the most.Īnother thing to note is that once a medication begins to address certain brain responses, in people with a lot of tension as is typical of those with GAD, the first forced release of that tension does not feel much like relief at all. If however, as mentioned, you continue to worsen, with new issues cropping up, talk to your doctor about mild tweaks of dosage, ideally in no more than 37.5 increments either way from this point. ![]() Which it sounds like it has a good potential to judging by your positive response to 75mg. These blips will slowly become lighter and further apart.Īll that of course provided the medication works for you. Even then, you will have blips and sometimes feel like you are taking a few steps back. You should be able to reach good concentration already by week 6 total (from onset at 75mg therapeutic dose) and progressive but gradual improvement from that point. However I dare assume that 150mg blast after only two weeks of 75mg will probably override cit withdrawal LOL so it will no longer make a difference which it is.Īlso, whichever it is, you can expect notable ups and downs until medication peaks and yes it is normal considering the fact that you were doubled up quite fast while also withdrawing from another drug. It is really hard to judge which is to blame. I can't see anywhere on the side effects where is mentions crying? ![]() Has anyone experienced this before, do you know if they will pass and are just side effects for example worse before better kind of thing or is this a sign they are not working for me. I thought the tablets are meant to make you feel stronger not weaker emotionally. I've never suffered with sadness as a result of anxiety and this is very new. I've got Hightended anxiety feelings in my stomach which are so strong that I feel I could burst out crying at any point which I've never felt before. ![]() I'm now noticing that my concentration is improving still slightly and I'm still being snapped out of worrying thought from time to time but my emotions are much more intense and all over the place. The GP decided to increase my dose to 150mg taken as 75mg twice a day and I've been in them for a week. After 2 weeks of intense side effects such as drowsiness and headaches etc.I started to notice that they were starting to work as whenever I would go into a worrying thought I would snap out of it after a few seconds rather than being caught up in it for a long time and my concentration was improving. I've was given 75mg of Venlafaxine immediate release to be taken as 37.5mg twice a day for generalised anxiety disorder. ![]()
