Pristiq (desvenlafaxine) not working for anxiety, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Desvenlafaxine: does not have an FDA indication for anxeity at this time. However, that does not mean that it can't be used off-label to treat anxiety. Don't know how long you have been on it - as results don't usually occur right away. Please let your doctor know this important information.
