A member asked:
Since pristiq (desvenlafaxine) isn't officially indicated for anxiety, is it still a reasonable option for depression with anxiety?

Pristiq (desvenlafaxine): Yes it can be, just like Effexor (venlafaxine).

MEDICATION: Best to discuss medication with your Psychiatrist. If uncomfortable with your Dr. consult another for a second opinion. Have a physical exam by a Dr. to determine if you have a physical illness. Consult with a Clinical Psychologist for psychotherapy with ZOOM sessions. Fears and anxiety could be heightened due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Stay safe & hopeful to elevate your immune system.
