In reply to Effexor XR and appetite, posted by sunnydays on June 14, 2008, at 23:11:04
> So I just increased my Effexor XR from 150mg/day to 225 mg/day two days ago. I am also taking 50 mg/day of Lamictal and, for this week, 1mg of Xanax at night to sleep. This is all under pdoc's-orders. I have found today that my appetite has dramatically increased - I am starving even immediately after I eat. Could this be a result of the Effexor? I know I need to just wait and see, but I wanted to know if it's a possibility.

> sunnydaysHi,
I'm now on Effexor 450mg & Remeron 180mg. But I started with just the Effexor. The most common side effect is nausea. So either you're having an idiosyncratic reaction or it's something else causing it :)
