I have been on an snri for the last fifteen years. i have to be on it for the rest of my life. is it safe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The snri class of medications is safe. Especially if you have been on it for 15 years already and do not have any issues with it so far. There are no long term consequences of being on it except for better mental health for you.
