Can taking 225mg of venlafaxine and 50mg of trazodone cause dizziness and everything to go white?

High risks: You describe symptoms consistent with spasm of basilar artery decreasing blood flow to balance and vision centers of the brain. Medications that can induce changes in brain blood flow can bring out or worsen these symptoms. Discuss with your doctor.
