In reply to Effexor and Extreme Drowsiness, posted by JC on July 31, 2001, at 8:32:38
When I began Effexor it made me sleepy too. As I stayed on it for about 4 weeks I found it activating. I don't know what it will do to you. I would suggest sticking with it for a few weeks unless the side-effects become unbearable or dangerous.
Much of this seems to be trial and error.
> Hello. I started taking Effexor 5 days ago, and although I feel more grounded emotionally, the drowsiness that I'm experiencing is extreme. I feel like sleeping all the time, and have to fight to stay awake at work. Is this sort of drowsiness normal? And if so, how long should it last? Any advice/insight would be appreciated. thanks.
