In reply to Prozac to Effexor XR, posted by medicated86 on September 14, 2008, at 17:44:45
Effexor XR can be difficult to discontinue. Perhaps you could explain why you are changing from Prozac. Are you doing a wash-out in preparation for an MAOI?
You're correct that Prozac takes a long time to wash out as it has a long half life as well as an active metabolite.
