Again, I know it's been a while since this post, but I'm also curious to see if anyone has lost weight after quitting Effexor. I took my last dose over a month ago, but I haven't seen too much in the way of weight loss. I've heard it takes some time for the Effexor to completely leave your system, thus delaying weight loss. Are there any supplements that aid in getting this stuff out of your system completely? I've started a pretty rigouous exercise routine, along with eating better. I'm anxious to see results. Any encouragement would be greatly appreciated!!!!
In response to V,
> I know it has been over a year since the post but I really want to know if anyone has lost the weight after witdrawing from effexor. I have gained 25 pounds as well. I hope all the widrawl is worth it. I have never felt so horrible. I too have the "brain shivers" and every time I would tell my doc they looked at me like I was crazy. I am glad to know that I am not the only one with these symptoms. I just wish there were an easier way.
