Withdrawal symptoms while taking meds
I’ve been taking Venlafaxine for the past year and a dosage of 112.5 for 6 months. If I ever miss a dose, I get nauseous, dizzy, and lightheaded. In the past two days, I’ve been feeling these symptoms even though I’m positive I took my medication in the proper dose. I checked the label on the bottle and the numbers on the pills themselves and they’re correct. Is there something else that could be wrong with my medication? If not, is there something else this could be?

What problem are you taking the meds for? It could be because of your actual problem per se, or may be due to the med as well. More clarity is needed regarding that. I would be more than happy to help you.
Next Steps
I suggest you have a review with the psychiatrist who started you on meds. If needed you can also directly consult with me through Practo. Online chat consultation is available.
Health Tips
Please check the expiry date of the meds once.
