Hello,
It is not related to Effexor. You can take expectorant cough syrups for symptomatic relief. Nothing much to worry and it could be a simple upper respiratory tract infection.
If symptoms persist you can consult a physician and start on antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
