My 13 year old daughter is currently hospitalized for depression and was started on Effexor 37.5 daily x 4 days, then 75 mg. x 1 day and today at 112.5 mg. Ever since she started the Effexor, I have noticed that her pupils are huge! I take Effexor at 75 mg. and noticed some slight dilation during the first week or so, but nothing as dramatic as my daughters. Is this normal? Will this go away? What is the cause of the dilated pupils? Why titrate her dose so rapidly? I have a call into her pdoc as well, but would appreciate any information or personal experience. Thanks, AnneL
