Will the side effects of effexor such as tiredness fade over time and is it a better drug for g a d over lexapro. thanks

Feeling tired: Feeling tired after taking the effexor may or may not resolve. Somnolence occurs with lexapro 10% or more. Somnolence can occur with effexor up to 20%. See: https://www.drugs.com/sfx/lexapro-side-effects.html. And see: https://www.drugs.com/sfx/effexor-side-effects.html. My patients on lexapro usually have little in the way of side effects. They are both effective medications.
