In reply to effexor side effects/withdrawl, posted by kckboxgrl on March 25, 2001, at 23:15:03
Lisa,
I too had daily headaches, starting the meds and now getting off. I had occasional migraines previous to the medication, though. My doctor prescribed Midrin, which helped a little. Other migraine meds can raise your blood pressure, which I had started having trouble with. The daily headaches went away after a few weeks. Effexor did help me for a while, although I had to keep upping the dose. If you read these postings, then I hope you will be very careful with Effexor. Good luck.
> Hi everyone! Just starting effexor xr, 37.5 mg. Up to 75 next week. I've read some really horrible things about side effects and withdrawl, has anyone had positive results? Also, since starting the effexor, i've had a headache (of migraine proportions) every morning--does anyone know if this is a side effect?
> Thanks for any help!
