Anxiety and Stress
"I rate this a 5 because this worked for me 3 years ago. I originally started taking it for fibromyalgia and it essentially took away my pain in a week or two. I stayed in it for about a year and a half and noticed how less anxious I felt. I tapered off over 6 months which has its side effects,  but nothing like others have reported. I write this review though in case someone has had a similar experience. I went back on about a month ago, this time solely due to anxiety. I took two pills and started have burning on my tongue and lips. I will also mention that I took Xanax these two days as well so I can&#039;t be certain it was the venaflaxine. I then started having 24/7 panic, lost 12 lbs in 2 weeks and blood pressure went really high."
