My doctor increased my dosage to 300 mg. Does anyone else take that amount and if so do you take them together or at different times? Do you feel like that dosage has helped?
Has anyone had an Increase in dosage amount?

Hi, Arhenry!
What medication are you taking?
Sorry I forgot. It’s Effexor XR
When I was taking Effexor I took the maximum recommended dose of 225/mg which worked well for me.
300mg is usually reserved for the most seriously depressed patients but it would be prescribed off label. Your doctor has probably determined that the benefits will outweigh any potential risk.
Sorry I couldn't be of help... others may come along who can share their personal experiences.
PS, you might want to post your questions again on the Effexor support board... you might get a better response as not all that many people are signed up on the Dosage forum.
