I've been weaning onto Effexor from 37.5 up to 150mg by increasing the dosage about 37.5/week-ish as I was told to do by my dr.
Right now I'm at 150mg and hanging on here for a while to try and stabilize the s/e.
Here are some side effects I've had:
blurry vision w/"floaters" in my peripheral vision
MASSIVE farts/burps
cold sweats
major sleepy during day, but too anxious to sleep at night
nausea
anorexia (loss of appetite)
hot flashes
feeling like a "wet noodle"
itchy dry skin
constipation (although it slowed up my diarrhea, so I'm not really complaining of that one. :) )
hard time saying the right words...the words that I mean. I think one word, but say a completely different word and don't realize until someone corrects me. Same thing when I'm typing or taking notes in class.
yeah. anyone else ever have these s/e on Effexor? When did they go away for you? I've been at 150 mg for two weeks now and on Effexor for 5 weeks total.
I'm know everyone's different, I'm just trying to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
thanks.
