Discuss with doctor: It is certainly possible that you may need further adjustments in Effexor (venlafaxine) XR in order to achieve maximum benefit. However, it is strongly recommended that you discuss this with the prescribing doctor. Do not make any adjustments without proper oversight. Hope this is helpful. All the best.
