A member asked:
Hand tremors, general body weakness and fatigue started 9 days after starting pristiq (desvenlafaxine) 50. could side effects have taken this long to appear?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If there were no other recent changes in medication and there is no other plausible explanation for the fatigue, daytime sleepiness, and tremors, i would assume that they are side effects of the newly started pristiq, (desvenlafaxine) even though it was started nine days before the symptoms began.
