Title: Venaflaxine - changing the time of taking it
Post by: Lily Kym on February 05, 2014, 11:24:25 PM

I usually take my meds with dinner which is dependant on when I leave the office

6pm through to 10pm; we eat any time between those hours

I take my ven when I eat

We are going away to holland and as they eat altogether I am not really able to take my meds in front of them

Can I change the time of taking them without side effects?

Morning would be easier I think...

When I was on it I only ever took it in the morning because that was what I was told to do by GP. Should be OK to change. However are you on xl/mr? If so I don't know if you will have to miss a dose in evening befor starting morning dose
