Hello. Thanks fro writing to HCM.
I read and understand your question very well.
I try my best to help you in this.
As you are on Effexor XR , and you have began with seizure . This drug will not cause seizure. There is another cause for seizure. It may be due to stress , tension etc. I suggest you to calm down and not to take any stress . Enjoy your life .
I suggest you to consult you doctor for this and tell everything that you fell.
I hope my advice will help you a lot.
Thanks and Regards.
Dr Vijay
