In reply to doctor pressure to use effexor xr, posted by learner on December 22, 2004, at 7:24:53
>My doctor is pressuring me to use Effexor xr for hot flashes. She says one of the side effects is that it relieves symptoms of menopause. I have mild anxiety but I'm highly functional and told her I'm reluctant to get on some drug for life or to suffer withdrawal.
Hi,
Unless your symptoms are severe I wouldn't take Effexor.
Regards,
Ed.
