Hello
I have a question, namely:
Didn't the Psychiatrist reduce Venlectine too abruptly?
I have been taking Venlectine for several years and have currently been on a dose of 2x 150mg 1-0-1
The time has come to change the drug from Venlectine to Mobemide.
I had the recommended reduction of the drug as follows:
With 2x150mg 1-0-1
Per 1 week 1x150mg 1-0-0
Another week
Every other day 1x150mg
3rd week switching to Mobemide 2x150mg 1-1-0
I ask if the descent from Venlectine wasn't too abrupt (quickly) Later on, the side effects of withdrawal are horrible. And the most troublesome is "Brain zaps"
Brain zaps appeared already in the second week of withdrawal, when there was no drug intake (every other day)
On Saturday I took my last dose of Venlectine 150mg and since Monday I have been on a new drug.
But this Brain zaps, gives me such a hard time... 😢
It occurs several times per minute with a frequency of 2x to 3x in one second.
Best regards,
