Im off pristiq which i was taking for a few weeks...what kinds of things will help me with the withdrawal symptoms?

Well: If you were on pristiq for just a few weeks you do not need to wean off for concerns of withdrawal. Now if you are having some kind of symptoms go see doctor right away to see what is going on

A member asked:
My dr took me off Pristiq and put me on Prozac to help taper down, however, I've still had awful withdrawals- increased anxiety, paranoia, "brain zaps", amplified negative feelings, etc. Is there a point I should be "concerned" enough to seek medical care
