  • Address difficulty swallowing by opening the capsule and sprinkling the contents onto a spoonful of applesauce. Swallow the mixture immediately without chewing, followed by water.

  The dosage of Effexor XR is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Your healthcare provider may start you on a low dose and gradually increase it to reduce the risk of side effects. It may take several weeks to feel the full benefit of Effexor XR.

Before taking Effexor XR, it is important to be aware of certain warnings and precautions:
  1. Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors: Effexor XR carries a boxed warning regarding the increased risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors, particularly in children, adolescents, and young adults. Close monitoring by a healthcare provider is important, especially at the beginning of treatment or when the dosage is adjusted.
  2. Serotonin Syndrome: Effexor XR can increase serotonin levels in the brain, which may lead to a potentially life-threatening condition called serotonin syndrome. Symptoms may include agitation, hallucinations, rapid heartbeat, fever, muscle stiffness, and coordination problems. It's important to seek immediate medical attention if these symptoms occur.
  3. Bipolar Disorder: Effexor XR should be used with caution in patients with bipolar disorder, as it may trigger a manic episode. A healthcare provider will screen for bipolar disorder before starting treatment with Effexor XR.
  4. Withdrawal Symptoms: Abruptly stopping Effexor XR may lead to withdrawal symptoms, such as dizziness, nausea, headache, irritability, and sleep disturbances. It is recommended to gradually reduce the dosage under the guidance of a healthcare provider when discontinuing treatment.
  5. Other Precautions: Effexor XR should be used with caution in patients with a history of seizures, liver or kidney problems, high blood pressure, heart disease, or glaucoma. It may interact with other medications, so it's important to inform a healthcare provider about all medications being taken.
