Take each capsule whole, with fluid, and not divide, crush, chew, or place in liquid prior to administration. Side effects While taking Effexor, some people may experience nausea, dizziness, sleepiness, delayed ejaculation, sweating, dry mouth, nervousness, insomnia, anorexia, and constipation. Effexor may raise blood pressure in some patients, so blood pressure should be monitored regularly. Effexor may impair judgment, thinking, or motor skills. Precautions Before starting Effexor, tell your doctor about any medicines you're taking, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements. Pregnant or nursing women shouldn't take any antidepressant without consulting their doctor. People taking MAO inhibitors should not take Effexor.
