In reply to how can I handle gut problems from Effexor?, posted by molly on November 12, 1999, at 7:51:48
> I justed started Effexor after 7 years on Zoloft. Even though I'm only starting with 37.5 mg of slow release, my gut has exploded!!! burning, cramping, nausea, diarrhea.... bleh!!! How long will this last? Does it ever go away?!
I think it will take a couple or three weeks. However, in the meantime try some ginger. I've heard it is very good for upset stomach problems. Also, skipping a day might help. But I've heard others rave about how well ginger works for symptoms like yours.
