In reply to Re: Cam--allergic rash from Effexor-XR?, posted by alicefranklin on July 30, 2000, at 10:48:14
Alice - I have not heard of any photosensitivity reactions with Effexor. I thought that since it did not block mucarinic (anticholinergic) receptors, there was little risk of sun-sensitivity. Although, on the other hand some prolonged side effects of Effexor are dry mouth and hypotension, which can be induced through anticholinergic effects. Hmmm.
I did a quick search of PubMed, to no avail. Could you ask your pharmacist where he/she got this info? It would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks - Cam.
