Is there anyone who has something positive to say about effexor (venlafaxine)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: While Effexor (venlafaxine) has a short half-life and some people can experience serotonin discontinuation symptoms if they stop it abruptly or miss doses, it can be a very effective antidepressant.
