effexor dizzy spells

How long after you stop taking effexor do the dizzy spells stop?  Gettting very frustrated and always end up giving in after about the 4th day and take one.

Everyone is different. Most people get better in a few weeks, some in months. For me, it has been 17 months and tons of major tests and still the dizzy spells. Good luck

I've been tapering for about 2 months now. Was on Venlor (or still is) and the dizzy spells are hectic!
Drinking 35g every other day, but this is because I have to. The dizziness and nausea gets too extreme to just go cold turkey!

I agree with Jenny, good luck!

Effexor dizzy spells.

I don't know when your dizzy spells will end, but I can tell you, that effexor made ms so dizzy, that I could not get out of bed. That was one day after taking it. I do not like this drug. Sorry, you are going through this.
