The most common adverse events reported in EFFEXOR XR short-term placebo-controlled MDD, GAD, and/or SAD trials (incidence >10% and >2x that of placebo) were anorexia, asthenia, constipation, dizziness, dry mouth, ejaculation problems, impotence, insomnia, nausea, nervousness, somnolence, and sweating.
As with any psychotropic drug, EFFEXOR XR may impair judgment, thinking, or motor skills; patients should be advised to exercise caution until they have adapted to therapy.
Herein lies my biggest gripe. It's those "short-term studies." I believe there is some truth to the short-term studies. It's what happens to people after eight and 12 weeks that I am looking for stats on. I can't really find anything on that. I have some more places to look though, but I doubt they're going to be sitting online, waiting for me to search them out. We'll see.
