EFFEXOR side effects and withdrawal symptoms

side effects and withdrawal symptoms

EFFEXOR is an antidepressant in a group of drugs called Selective Serotonin and Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors (SSNRIs). Serotonin influences the cardiovascular, renal, immune and gastrointestinal systems, while Norepinephrine is essential to the heart rate, blood pressure and sympathetic nervous system. Therefore, stopping EFFEXOR incorrectly can adversely affect many areas of the body. Gradual dose reduction (also known as tapering), combined with specific nutritional support is recommended to help the body and brain during withdrawal.

According to Dr. Joseph Glenmullen, 78% of EFFEXOR users will experience withdrawal symptoms.

EFFEXOR , like many drugs, depletes Glutathione (the body’s master antioxidant) that is critical for the detoxification process and a healthy immune system. This may explain why so many people suffer from compromised health while taking EFFEXOR . Dr. Jimmy Gutman describes Glutathione as “Food for the Immune System.” Replenishing the body of critical Glutathione levels not only helps to improve immune function, but also allows the body to detoxify naturally.

The POINT OF RETURN Withdrawal Program was specifically developed to address the extensive depletion issues caused by EFFEXOR, while also providing support to the body and brain during the withdrawal process.
