A member asked:
Velafaxin: i am taking venlafaxin 75 for 5 months now. i feel great. when should i taper off?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not yet: I'm glad you feel great on venlafaxine so far. You haven't shared why you were prescribed this, though. If for depression, most people need to stay on it for 9-12 months so that relapse is less likely. Please talk with your doctor before changing your medication. Best wishes.
