A member asked:

I've started taking effexor (venlafaxine) prescribed a few weeks ago, and now in week 3 i feel some kind of nausea, i'm not sure if this is could be a side effect.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

SSRI: The nausea could well be a serotonin effect. SSRI meds elevate serotonin in brain and GI tract. Nausea then happens. This will pass.
