Yes: Effexor (venlafaxine) has been associated w/bladder & urination issues such as you've described. Check out http://www.Drugs.Com/sfx/effexor-side-effects.Html & discuss w/your prescribing doctor. Of course, your symptoms may also be complicated by otc medications, herbs, natural organic dietary supplements, etc. But first, go see your doc.

Pristiq (desvenlafaxine) is superior: Please ask your psychiatrist to substitute Pristiq for effexor. Effexor is venlafaxine & Pristiq is a superior chemical variant. Pristiq is desvenlafaxine & much superior & less side effects!
