Hello thanks for asking from HCM

Venlafaxine is a SNRI drug and the drug is a good anti depressant and anti anxiety drug. The drug is used in depression, anxiety, a lot of pain conditions, fibromyalgia etc.

The drug can cause sedation, nausea, dizziness, restlessness, slight increase in blood pressure as side effects. Taking the drug with Estroven Weight Management, Synetrim CQ may result in increased risk of serotonin syndrome though detailed research studies and evidence are lacking. Consult your psychiatrist for detailed advise.

Thanks, hope this helps you.
