    Unfortunately, no it does not.  I have been suffering with this horrible sweating for 12 years.  I am so done and I want to stop taking it, but I am afraid of the withdrawals..

    I never stopped sweating. I finally had to get off of Ven. I've known others who were okay with it. It depends on each individual and how well it's working (minus the sweats). Weigh the pros and cons before making your decision. Good luck

      I heard that getting off Ven is very difficult because of the horrible withdrawal symptoms. I am really afraid to try. From what I understand the withdrawal is very, very bad. I am on 225 mg, and I have been on it for 12 years. Just don't know what to do. Thank you for your input though
