I have been taking Effexor XR for a little over 3 weeks. I am currently on 75 mgs. I have quite a few side effects. The side effects are shakiness, numbness in some areas of my body, muscle tension and twitching and dizziness. I increased the dosage to additional 37.5 mgs with my doctors consent and the side effects worsen. I dropped the additional dosage and went back to 75 mgs. That was much better. I feel that the medicine has not kicked in yet. How long does this take. Do these side effects eventually go away? I know I cannot live with these side effects for much longer. Can anyone tell me about their experience on this medicine? Are these side effects lasting too long? Help!
