Go to the nearest ER: If you took 30 venlafaxine XR 75 mg tabs, you should go to the nearest ER as soon as possible. You could experience life threatening side effects like elevated blood pressure, arrhythmias of the heart and seizures. Please get the help you need if you are contemplating suicide.

Anytime: If you have talked to your provider and it is agreed that trying to ween off Effexor (venlafaxine) is the right thing to do there is no particular good time. However, when you do go off do not stop immediately, but take two weeks to reduce your dose.

Patience.: It takes anywhere from 2-6 weeks on the right dosage to feel the benefits of antidepressants. The dose will depend on the severity, duration and the presence of co-morbid factors. It is important to have CBT as part of your therapy, not just medications to help you attain the benefits.
