Venlafaxine increase

[Carseatheadrest]

I'm new here, first post! I use Cerebral and my prescriber is increasing my Venlafaxine (effexor) up to 200 mg. Anything I should look out for when increasing doses?

Hi and welcome! There's not a "one size fits all" model since everyone is different. Things I've struggled with in the past when increasing doses is the time it took before I noticed a positive effect.

I’ve been taking Venaflaxine for many years. High dose, low dose & in between. Don’t know if it is effective or not,but I follow my prescription. Hasn’t done any harm. Hope that helps.
