Bowel Disorder and Effexor a possible side-effect?

Question

Hi...Does anyone know the side-effects of effexor? People ask me if I am experiencing any side-effects and I do not know what to say.
The one thing that I have noticed is my regular B.M. I use to be once a day, and regular (at the same time of the day). I was in a routine of working at a job, outside of the home. Now, it seems everytime I sit on the can, I go and it is a struggle for like a rabbit turd (now, don't laugh...no, I want you to laugh, we don't do it enough!...lol). I was just wondering if anyone is experiencing this or is it just because of my change of lifestyle? I do feel bloated a lot (stomach is big and hard and sore). Your response would be much appreciated as this is a real mystery for me as I have never had this problem before. Take care.

Nowadays doctors have another official term for "side-effect". i.e. adverse reaction. Any complaint you launch to the company or the FDA regarding the "side-effect" will be treated as adverse reaction. Whether it is related to the medication taken is another story; they will look into that. If many people complain about that, that will be regarded as related to the medication and will be put in the label.

In clinical studies, the most common side effects (reported in at least 10% of patients and at least twice as often as with placebo) were constipation, dizziness, dry mouth, insomnia, loss of appetite, nausea, nervousness, sexual, sleepiness, sweating, and weakness.

Your complaint may be related to the medication, but not too many people reported this.
