Last night I met a friend for dinner, and I had a couple of drinks. When I got home I had never been more sick in all my life. I didn't throw up, but I thought I might. I don't drink very often, maybe once every couple of months, and never to the point of intoxication. A couple of drinks has never made me feel like that. Obviously it is the Effexor. Has anyone else had the same experience? Why wouldn't my doctor tell me explicitly not to drink while on this medication? Also, if this is a long term medication (in my case, I am guessing it will be), does that mean I can never have an alcoholic drink with a friend until I am off?
