Real Life Pharmacology - Pharmacology Education For Health Care Professionals

In this episode, I discuss venlafaxine pharmacology, adverse effect, dose conversion of IR to ER, and drug interactions. Venlafaxine is notorious for producing withdrawal symptoms when discontinued abruptly. I discuss these in detail on the podcast. How significant is the interaction of venlafaxine with antiplatelet agents? I discuss that in this episode. The onset of action is a critical education point that patients must be aware of as it takes some time for venlafaxine to work.
