Effexor side effect or allergy

Effexor side effect or allergy

I had been taking Effexor 37.5mg once per day and after a few days i started experiencing a choking sensation in my throat. Is this one of the side effects or allergic reation to the Effexor? I stopped taking them after 17days and i feel that i am having a lot of unwanted thoughts going around in my head and feeling very down especially in the mornings

Uncommon adverse effect. Might be anxiety related but probably not an allergy. The allergic reaction include rash, hives, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing. If you feel the choking sensation is due to swelling it might be an allergic reaction but i guess it would have been worse than that. Anyway talk to your doctor and ask for a medication switch there are other SNRIs you can try.

Best regards,
