I have been on 75mg xr for 2 weeks, how much longer should i wait before asking my doctor to increase to 150mg xr?

Another week?: I'm assuming you're asking about the Effexor (venlafaxine). It usually takes 2-3 weeks to see an effect on moods from the medication. I would probably give it another week, if you aren't feeling better, ask about increasing it. Good luck!
