Hello Lybrate User
You need to consult to your psychiatrist for the same as you have been taking the medication on and off. Moreover, try to figure out that what is causing the anxiety within you. Because it is very important to understand the 'what' of anxiety so that you can also discuss about it and it will lower down to a level. Regards.

Medication regime which you are talking about is more likely indicative of treatment of psychotic depression having some mixed features. So in this medication needs to be continued long term. May be few years. All a psychiatrist can say is if you stop medication abruptly then subsequent episode is going to be more rapid and severe.

Desvenlafaxine is FDA category C drug,it's given in pregnancy only if it's use outweighs it's risk
You should consult your doctor as it should not be stopped abruptly as it may cause withdrawal symptoms.
If your doctor feels you need to switch over to another antidepressants he will change the medicine

Dear user. Thanks for the question. Serotonin syndrome (SS) is a group of symptoms that may occur following use of certain serotonergic medications or drugs. The degree of symptoms can range from mild to severe. Symptoms include high body temperature, agitation, increased reflexes, tremor, sweating, dilated pupils, and diarrhea. Talk to your psychiatrist. Take care.

While it is not addictive stopping it suddenly may cause “ discontinuation symptoms “ which are more like anxiety symptoms. Like always please discuss with your doctor about change of medications especially if you wish to stop the medicine as it should be gradually reduced in dose and stopped to avoid the above mentioned discontinuation symptoms.
