Tina...the dry mouth probably comes from the antinauseants (which are part antihistamine), but I am sure the Effexor contributes. I found that again most side effects where time related...so in time you should adjust no problem. Just take it slow and easy..and again don't be in any rush to 'up' the dose.

Best wishes...
Jay
