I don't know enough about legal issues to predict if you have a case. But a doctor should be available to a patient after a change in medication. This issue has just recently re-surfaced in the FDA discussions about AD's and suicide.

They stressed that a doctor should closely monitor a patient immediately following either the start of a new antidepressant, or a dosage change.

If you called the doctor after he started you on Effexor, and you left a message and he didn't return your calls, that's pretty bad.
