In reply to EFFEXOR XR AND BRUISING, posted by wheresheruns on November 18, 2002, at 14:43:48
Hi. I'm not buying that statistic; 1 in 100 get bruising from Effexor? I had bruising with every SSRI that I used. I know Effexor is not an SSRI, and I have not been on it, but I bruised from Paxil, Prozac, and Zoloft. This is very common, yet the docs don't really know about it since people do not report it all that much. I have two friends on Prozac with the same thing, so I think it's a side effect that is more common than is known. I doubt Effexor is much different. After all, the drug reps call it "side effexor". You're not having a rare, weird side effect; it happens a lot. Take care.
