Taking 225 mg Effexor XR, and it definitely causes my bp to be raised, but I've tried different anti-depressants, and only Effexor XR does the trick, so it's worth it. With home monitoring of the blood pressure, and under doctor's supervision trying a lower dose, we found it was definitely the Effexor XR and not stress, caffiene, diet, etc. Stress did definitely affect the blood pressure. Will be starting blood pressure lowering medicine soon, for the benefit of the Effexor XR, it's worth it.
