Let me get this straight, your doctor called a refill to the pharmacy for 150 LESS then your husband was taking......say the day before???? Unbelievable!!!!

Call your doctor and complain......that is crazy!!!

Now besides my rant, I know nothing about the proper withdrawel from effexor.....I just know that when I miss my dose for a day, I am sick with a headache, etc.

Sorry I couldn't help, but maybe, just maybe the doctor's office made a mistake. Please call!!
