My anxiety has blown up over covid and although i am already on a cocktail of drugs for it the phys team recommended going from my 112.7 of Venlafaxine SR to 75mg Venlafaxine SR and 10 Mg of Escitalopram (i am also on 450mg pregabalin). first few weeks i didn't really feel any effect but i am nearing the end of my 4th week and I am worse now than I was on the old venlafaxine dose. All the leaflets i read say that it should take about 2 to 4 weeks to feel its feel effect so not sure i should stick with it or just go back to my venlafaxine dose and re-evaluate once my baseline anxiety comes down a bit.
