I spoke to my dr today about my insomnia and sexual side effects that are still lingering from the Effexor that I have been taking for just over 3 weeks, and he wants me to make the switch from Effexor to Lexapro. He also suggested that I start to reduce my Effexor dose tomorrow to 37.5, from 75mg. He wants me to wean at 37.5 for a week and then start on 10mg of Lexapro. I would be interested in staying in touch while we are both going through this transition. I would love to have someone else to compare notes with on this. My only concern is that I have a race to run in 10 days and I don't want to be suffering. Maybe I should re-jig the timing a bit and wait for a few more days to reduce my dose and make the switch. Please let me know how your experience progress'. I know everyone is different but it would be interesting to see how similar the effects are. Thoughts?
