I have a dry cough and i wonder if it is due to the new medication in taking which is venlafaxine ?

Dr. Silviu Pasniciuc answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine

Cough: Rare cases have been described in the literature as cough is not a common, well described side effect of venlafaxine. Alternate causes appear more likely and if symptoms persist let your prescribing doc know about your symptoms.
