In reply to effexor and food?, posted by utopizen on November 19, 2002, at 10:17:31
I don't believe food affects the absorption, after reading extensively in my med book. Although it says to take with food, it appears that, as you suspected, that the caution relates to the high incidence of GI effects from the med. My source does state that Effexor "may be taken without regard to food" and does not list food under the nutritional/ethanol interactions category.
Hope this helps!
