I stopped taking it last week, and now I am back on Cymbalta. The Veterans Administration mailed me a new bottle of Effexor XR, completely sealed with that silver protective top on it under the lid. If you would like it, tell me, and I will mail it to you. It was free to me, so I hate to see it go in the trash. The pharmacy can't let me return it even though it is unopened.
I don't know anyone locally who is taking this, so I figured that someone on this forum could use it.
