Effexor XR

by innernutshell, May 18, 2009 05:39PM
Has anyone had diarhea (diarrhea)/ irritable bowel like issues with their withdrawal from this drug?  I thought i had good old gastro but have just discovered i've missed 4 days of my pills!!!! I'm on 150mg daily.  I couldn't understand why it wasn't going away...why was i still feeling so terribly nauseous even lying dwon & still.  Why was my bowel still upset?  Why did i feel better for a couple of hours if i took a travel sick pill and nurofen?  But if if i just took one or the other it didn't work.  I feel awful, sweats, headache upset digestion, nausea, giddiness, tearfulness and now like i've been run over by a bus.  Needless to say i've taken my pills so hope this will quickly get rid of symptoms.  Was so glad to read all those other comments from people that made me realise what it was.  Thank you.
