@drjaleelmohammed: Venlafaxine is an antidepressant used to treat depression, anxiety, and panic disorder. It belongs to the SNRI class, increasing serotonin and noradrenaline levels in the brain. Taken once or twice daily, typically with food, it may cause side effects like nausea, dizziness, insomnia, and sweating, which usually improve over time. Regular monitoring of blood pressure is recommended, as it may increase. It takes several weeks to show effects, and stopping it abruptly can cause withdrawal symptoms. #medication #medicine #MentalHealth #psychiatry #psychiatrist

Been on Effexor for years and the excessive sweating is crazy. Nausea, too, if you don't eat with it.

This med, the very first dose, found me in the hospital. I had the worst effects which included burning in my head and stomach region, racing heart then immediately slowing down back to racing again. I didn't have the side effects that are mentioned in this video. The doctors were stumped and had never heard of what was happening to me. I really thought I was going to die when I had my partner pull off to the side of the road to call the ambulance. I couldn't make it to the nearest hospital. THE scariest incident of my life besides the childhood trauma I went through!

I've just stopped taking venlafaxine as it has contributed in me losing teeth. I think the gum disease and bone resorbtion side effects should be discussed more!
