My skin feels cool/regular to touch; however, i feel like i am boiling inside. i am on 225mg of effexor (venlafaxine). why do i feel like this?

Possible side effect: Everyone responds differently to medications. Some patients will have unusual feelings on antidepressants the first 10-14 days of treatment. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water and eating protein rich foods. Get adequate sleep but if this feeling continues contact your MD to see if a medication change may be necessary. http://www.drugs.com/sfx/effexor-side-effects.html
