Extreme bloating on Effexor XR
| Mon, 12-18-2006 - 7:40pm |
I thought I would post with hopes that someone can help me.
I started taking Effexor XR 2 weeks ago with success. However, my dilema is I have been experiencing severe bloating/gas and constipation. I feel like I have gained weight but I know it's all from being bloated and distended. My stomach feels like I am 9 months pregnant and my pants are tight and uncomfortable around my waist
What do I do to relieve this extreme discomfort I am having? I don't want to stop the meds as they have been working.
Any advise....please!

The very first thing

<Thank you for your reply. I will look into this. I know this drug is giving me this reaction.
I will keep you posted.
Thanks!
I'll be anxious to hear what you learn. If it is a lactose problem, it can be remedied and the bloating can be controlled.
