I started taking 37.5 mg of Effexor XR. So, I think what you're talking about is one in the same. I upped my dosage soon after that, to 75 mg, 100 mg, and eventually to 150 mg. Personally, Effexor XR worked for me. The depression seems to be completly gone - to the point that I began to "ween" myself off of the stuff. I was tired of gaining weight - 30 lbs in about a year and a half. It also killed my desire for sex - not good when your married! I also noticed that I was more irritable than usual - the little things were getting to me too much. I decided it was time to try life off of Effexor XR. We'll see how it goes!
