Just a brief note to ask if anyone has experienced any side effects from Venlafaxine and Risperidone. I always develop giddiness and nausea if I do not take Venlafaxine in the morning. Is that one of the side effects of Venlafaxine?

Venlafaxine has one of, if not, the worst discontinuation syndroms of all the antidepressants. So if you're super sensative, yes missing a dose could cause side effects.
I find with venlafaxine it makes me slightly nauseus and dizzy for a couple of hours after I take it. Risperidone makes me lactate and gives me a slight hand tremor as well as a tendency towards emotional flatness which isn't great. But overall I like the combination. splitimage

I dont know about giddiness, but if I missed a dose, I would get a headache, dizzy and feel like my brain was generally overstimulated (which might be what you mean by giddiness). Also, when starting Effexor, I had horrible headaches and lost my appetite. As far as Im concerned, Effexor and I didnt get along, though, so dont be scared off by my story.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
