re:effexor rx

by anelise, Dec 10, 2008 06:47PM

I cannot afford my Effexor rx. How bad would it be if I have to miss it for a week before I can get in touch with my doctor to get the generic effexor?

Your pharmacist can answer that, and some are open 24 hours.

there is no generic for effexor XR only regular effexor, you are going to notice symptom of a kind of withdrawl, headaches, vertigo, this is the worst. I take effexor xr and if I miss a dose I feel terrible---call you doctor--alot of times the have samples that can get you through until you can get your money.
