Hello all!
Hope you are doing fine. Not two people are alike and I am just sharing my experience with you.
As you know, all medications have side effects. When you start taking a new medication, it takes a little while for your body to get used to it. The same is true for EFFEXOR XR.
Before starting EFFEXOR XR, tell your doctor about any medicines you're taking, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements. Pregnant or nursing women shouldn't take any antidepressant without consulting their doctor. People taking MAO inhibitors should not take EFFEXOR XR.
When you first start taking EFFEXOR XR, you may experience nausea, but this lessens in most people and usually goes away within 2 weeks of starting treatment. You may also experience dizziness, sleepiness, delayed ejaculation, sweating, dry mouth, nervousness, insomnia, anorexia, and constipation.
If nausea does not lessen within the first few weeks, or if serious side effects occur, talk to your doctor. EFFEXOR XR may raise your blood pressure; therefore, regular monitoring of blood pressure is recommended. Because EFFEXOR XR may impair judgment, thinking, or motor skills, you should use caution until you have adapted to therapy.
I did feel nauseated, dizzy, and lost my appetite. All side effects were gone after 2 months. I am not saying you ALL will experience what I did, but make it a little fair after reading so much negative reactions.
I started taking Effexor XR in January 2002 and it sure has worked for me like it has with people I know personally. If people email me and ask me how am I doing, I will sure tell them for ME has been the miracle drug! After 12 years of chronic depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, panic attacks and a little paranoia, Effexor opened up for me, a whole new life...
Bless you all
