Can Pristiq 50 Mg Cause Short Term Memory Loss?

Can 50 mg prestiq per day for one year cause short term memory loss? I am taking no other psychiatric medicine and my only conditions are anxiety/depression.I am a male in my late 30s. If yes, how long will it take for the memory to recover once I stop prestiq? Thanks.

Memory loss is more often due to poor concentration resulting from your anxiety/depression. Memory loss is not one of the recognized side effects
