Effexor

Asked Mar 1, 2007, 07:44 PM — 4 Answers
I am thinking about going on Effexor and I just wanted to findout some information before I deside if it is for me or not.
One of the main things is that I am also on some other medications and was wondering which meds I shouldn't take with it.
If any one has any info that would help a ton!
Thank You!

EFFEXOR XR: Approved for Treatment of Depression, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and Social Anxiety Disorder

It is not recommended for teenagers. It can actually make depression worse. Talking with your doctor is best but it would be beneficial to know what else you are on as well.

I have talked to my doctor and she told me to do this. And I couldn't really find anything.

I am currently taking:
Dexadrine
Apo Naproxen
