> redcatGet your blood pressure checked, too. You may just be hypersensitive to Effexor. It made me very nauseated as well. Call your doctor and tell them what is going on. You might need to reduce the dose until you get used to it (say half of a 37.5 tablet in the morning). Or based on what you tell them they might switch it to something else. Just don't sit and suffer with the side-effects.
good luck,
Mitch
