I ran out of my 150mg extended release tablets but I have some old (but not expired) 75mg extended release tablets, would it be safe/effective to just take two of those until I can refill my prescription?
If you usually take 150 mg of Venlafaxine is it safe/effective to instead take two 75mg pills?

Yes, that would be an equal dose, therefore safe for you to take.

Hi, Help!
Go ahead and take them as the dosage is identical and they're both the ER formulation.
