Stay away from this poison. It has ruined my life. The withdrawal is hell. I have become numb and in extream pain. Please do not take this but let ur doc know...I was told its the hardest drug to get of off.

Hello. Pristiq is essentially effexor that has been altered on a molecular level. So I would assume that the withdrawal would be similar. I would get back on it ASAP, and if you want to quit taking it, do so very gradually under a doctors advice. Take care, GM
