Brief Answer:
Flupirtine (prescription drug)

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.

Effexor withdrawal can be very distressing.

In my clinic, I have successfully used drug flupirtine (prescription drug) in similar cases.

This drug is a centrally acting non-opioid analgesic with good muscle relaxant properties. It will definitely help in cramps.

Kindly discuss this with your doctor.

Hope this helps.

Feel free to discuss further.

Thanks.
