There are side effects to any medications!. Effexor are no difference!. Side effects of Effexor, that has to do with the brain, are;

Drowsy, blurred vision, headaches, lightheaded, fainting, ringing or buzzing in ears, anxiety, nervousness, and twitching!.

If any of these sound familar, ask you doctor if you can gradually decrease the medication!.

Good luck and good health!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I was on effexor for over a year and I had many side effects from it!. I do not know what causes them, but I do know that this is a really potent medication!. No matter what, do not stop taking it suddenly!. I did, and it almost drove me insane!. The withdrawals are torture!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'M ON 300 MG'S ALSO AND BEEN ON IT FOR YEARS!. I GOT BRAIN ZAPS THE FIRST 4 DAYS OF TAKING IT BUT AFTER THAT I WAS OK!. I'M NOT SURE WHY YOU ARE GETTING BRAIN ZAPS AFTER 6 MONTHS!. DID YOU TAKE SOME OTHER MEDS LATELY!?!? YOU SHOULD TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR ASAP!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
