0112358 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I took Effexor for one day and experienced horrible side effects - vomiting, sweating, nausea, shaking, sleepiness. That was three days ago, but since then I've been sleeping all the time and am still shaky. Has anyone else experienced something like this after only one dose?

mikl_pls Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I've never experienced this, but I would get in contact with your pdoc right away, and if you can't get ahold of him/her, then you may need to go to the ER. That sounds pretty serious. I'm sorry you're going through this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0112358 Posted January 14, 2017 Author Share Posted January 14, 2017 I have talked to my APRN (who prescribes my psych meds) about it, and stopped taking it after one dose... have another appointment on Thursday, with a psychiatrist at the same practice, to figure out next steps. The lingering effects aren't too severe (compared to the initial side effects) but I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced them after only one dose of effexor.
