yep that happens.. do you take the effexor as a single morning dose ? If so you may want to try 2 doses 12 hrs apart...
It seems to me /for me, to be a withdrawal type effect that happens mainly about 10 to 12 hrs after the last dose.
Have you added any other meds, even OTC, in the past few weeks... Have you changed something in your diet ? Grapefruit juice or other fruit juices ? more or less raw veggies ? tonic water ?
are you drinking ?
a change in any number of things can affect the myoneural junction & or cause increased muscle cell irritability...
vit E & Magnesium supplements usually help with the twitches....
