my face and hands are so dry. I try to drink more fluids but it hasn't done anygood.Also, has anyone had the effect of getting very emotional and depressed and wanting to cry? I got that for about a couple hours when i went up to the 75mg strength. it was on the very first dose of the 75mg

In reply to Does the dyhidration effect from effexor go away?, posted by kattay on January 10, 2004, at 9:48:07
Hi kattay..I experienced a lot of hyperactivity when I first started Effexor, which caused a lot of "cotton-mouth" and overall dryness, that eventually went away once my body got adjusted to the medication. Just keep yourself hydrated the best you can. As for the emotional roller-coaster, I experience that with almost every medication I go on! I just tell myself that it's going to happen every time, and that it's just a side effect, not a character flaw, and that it too shall pass! I know, easier said than done, but hang in there...Effexor is a real life saver for me, and hopefully it will work for you too. Keep in touch and good luck!
