I am currently taking 75 mg of Effexor XR . I had been on 10mg of prozac for about 10 years. i am in menopause and was having more anxiety so my dr switched me to the Effexor. I want to go back to my prozac as I am having terrible sweating & nightmares on the Effexor XR!!! Can i just stop the Effexor and start taking my 10 mg of prozac??
