Noticed bright red blood in stool also have lower right abdominal and back pain have been taking effexor (venlafaxine) for 3 weeks?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most likely : Due to constipation from the Effexor (venlafaxine) and hemorrhoids, but depending on your age you may need a more thorough exam and possible colonoscopy. Do not ignore the bleeding. It is not normal. Get it checked properly.
