I forgot my Venlafaxine yesterday and feel sort of down. Could one day make a difference?

It did when I took it. You're not supposed to take extra either (that would probably give you a headache) so all I ever knew to do was to go through the down feeling. Usually I'd feel back to normal in a day or two.

When I used to take that medication, I used a pill minder and was absolutely compulsive about taking it regularly because I was so sensitive to missing a dose.
Thanks for this!

If I forgot to take it, I'd get lightheaded and dizzy during the day. That's when I'd realize I'd missed it. It has a short half-life, which means it doesn't linger in your system long and so you will feel the difference if you don't take it on time.

I think you'll be back to feeling better.
