Effexor can make you feel strange when you start taking it. Remember this is a drug that is changing the chemicals in your brain and how they function. Talk to your Dr if the symptoms don't improve.

Are headaches common while taking Triphasil for birth control and Effexor for anxiety or depression?

I don't know what the correlation is between birth control and anxiety/depression medication but I do know that one of the side effects of taking the birth control pill is headaches, especially when you first start taking it. I agree with anonymous above, headaches is a common side effect when first taking the pill. I am on my second pack and my headaches can get pretty bad. As far as the anxiety/depression medication, you might want to ask your doctor but if the doctor prescribed your pills knowing you were on that medication you might be fine because they prescribe the pill that would be right for you based on your medical history. ask your Dr or pharmacist. i take both, and i do get bad headaches sometimes. headaches and migraines are a side effect of Effexor also, along w/ the pill I believe that headaches/migraines occur with Effexor especially if you don't take it close to the same time every day. Being off by just a little bit seemed to cause major headaches and nausea when I was on it. Withdrawal.


Is Lexapro an alternative for Effexor?

I posted this question because I am considering switching medications and am nervous about it due to so many adverse accounts I've been reading on the internet. I have been taking Lexapro 15mg for 2 years for GAD treatment. I had dry mouth at first, but it went away quickly. The mental effects have been wonderful and I feel like "me" again without all the worrying. My reason for switching is due to extreme lethargy (sleeping 10 hours a night then taking 2 hour naps mid-day!), night sweats, and absolutely NO libido. I though I could deal with the libido thing, but after 2 years it's driving me crazy. My doctor suggested I try Effexor XR because at a low dose (75mg) she thinks it wouldn't effect my sex drive nor make me so sleepy, yet would still treat my GAD. I was all for it today in her office, but when I came home and started researching Effexor on the web, I am reading so many terrifying reviews about it--mostly of its horrible withdrawal symptoms. Does anyone out there have any experience with this? Should I stay put with Lexapro or go forward with Effexor? Or is there something else that would work better?? Help! PS I am also taking birth control (Yaz), which may or may not have anything to do with this scenario, but I thought yaou should know my whole medical situation.
