To have good success with your withdrawal from Effexor xr....I began weaning off 225mg for 1 month, then 125 mg for one month, then 75 for 2 weeks, then 37.5 for 2 -3 weeks. I then got Effexor in pill form (37.5 mg) I quartered it and took 3/4 of the pill for 1 week, then 1/2 pill for 1 week then 1/4 of pill for 1 week, then I ended up crushing the last 1/4 pill and taking 1/2 the powder. I had no withdrawal systems except for slight lightheadedness on the first day or so I decreased the amount.
