A member asked:
Dr just raised my venlafaxine from 150 mg. to 225 mg. what should i expect and will it help with ocd and irritability, moodiness, depression?

Expect improvement.: It generally is more effective against depression and even OCD at 225 mg., but don't expect much help for moodiness or irritability at that dosage.

Venlafaxine: Hopefully you will feel significant improvement. I usually inquire about the difference about a month after the dosage change.
