how long do withdrawal symptoms last after stopping Pristiq

it depends from one person to another...wait one week, and if nothing changes, talk to your doctor who prescribed you Pristiq. Actually, if the drug is stopped gradually, you shouldn't have the withdrawal syndrome.

I had been on Pristiq for 4 months and my doctor told me how to stop taking it. She said the smallest dose is 50 mg and you cannot cut it in half, so you just have to stop taking it and deal with the symptoms. I have been off of it for 4 days and I still feel horrible. If anyone knows please PLEASE help us!

you should never just stop taking antidepressant.  My doctor had me take it every other day for two weeks and i never felt a symptom of withdrawal

I was only on Pristiq for a week.  Prior, I was on Zoloft for 2 - 3 years.  My doc told me to just make the switch, no weaning off the Zoloft (200 mg) to 50 mg of Pristiq.  After 4 days on the Pristiq, I began getting very dizzy.  By day 8 I found myself at the doctor wanting to die from the dizziness.  

 To help, they now have me on 10 mg of Prozac and I feel like I am withdrawing from heroin - dizzy, confused, hallucinating, extreme low BP, headache.  I don't know what to do, i have never been so scared.  

 anyone have a similar experience or can tell me how long this is going to last?  I don't know if I am withdrawing from Zoloft, Pristiq, both???  

Appreciate the advice!
