Medications and Illness
I think I have the flu. I’ve had nausea and I’ve been throwing up. I haven’t taken my Effexor XR in two days. Should I keep taking it?




Q: I think I have the flu. I’ve had nausea and I’ve been throwing up. I haven’t taken my Effexor XR in two days. Should I keep taking it?

A: Yes! If at all possible, resume taking your dose of Effexor XR. You may indeed have the flu, but missing even one dose of Effexor XR can cause nausea, vomiting, aches and headaches. Some people get shock like sensations in their head or feel suddenly extremely depressed. Resuming the Effexor XR may alleviate your flu symptoms. return to top
