DESVENLAFAXINE vs VENLAFAXINE

I’ve been doing some reading about the 2 available forms of desvenlafaxine, but I think I’ve confused myself at this point. Other than the salt form, is there any major difference between the two?

About a month ago I (19F) was prescribed Buspirone for anxiety and Desvenlafaxine for depression. These medications were chosen after I took a Genesight test and the results showed them to be among the best options. The person that prescribed them was not my usual consultant, but was the person I wa

I am a pharmacy technician with over 20 years of experience across just about every faction of pharmacy besides Big Pharma/R&D. I currently have a full time job in RX finance, and an evening gig in LTC data entry. The other day at my part time shop, I literally happened upon a script by chance

I (29F) learned in another Reddit thread that Miralax is derived from polyethylene glycol, a petroleum-based compound, derived from petroleum byproducts. This information obviously freaks me out. All of my medications have constipation/hard bowel movements as a side effect (Desvenlafaxine, clonidin

I just needed to vent about my depression and my issues with society's stance on it somewhere. I thought these were supposed to be the best years of my life? I'm not ugly, and I like to think I'm funny and friendly, so why don't people like me? I'm always alone. Always, always, always. I've spent my

I am at the end of my rope right now, and I have nowhere else to go except jump. I wake up every morning wishing it would all stop, and it's my last thought before falling asleep. I am finishing up my PhD this year, but I don't have nearly the job prospects I was expecting. I am in a field as a m

*This is a super long post*, but before I started my AD I was looking for something detailed like this to see people's progressions on their meds. I had a hard time finding much, and this is why I decided to track my own progress and share after 6 weeks. Backstory: 26yr F, have had anxiety and mild

I take Venlafaxine. Just increased from 75 mg to 150 mg. I used to masturbate a lot. Not everyday...but most days. Now I have absolutely zero urge to. I’m talking to a girl now and she says that she’s a “freak” sexually. But I’m basically asexual now because of my meds. So of course.

Hi, Reddit, Over the past month, I have been weaning off of Venlafaxine, I was only on it for 3 months but it has been a debilitating experience that should be taken seriously! After a lot of research, I have noticed many people have been taking these medications for years and the withdrawal symptom
