Pristiq (desvenlafaxine): Hi, most of these symptoms could happen with Pristiq, (desvenlafaxine) and those should get better in 2 wks if not then you need to discuss that with your treating doctor. Also if you have trouble urination nd your bladder is full I suggest that you go to ER.

Hold med and see doc: These could be related to the Pristiq (desvenlafaxine) but in any case these symptoms deserve immediate attention. Hold off on the new meds and contact your doctor or go to Hosp ER to check it out.
