We definitely need a consumer reports for medications. But then everyone has such varied reactions. Anecdotal reports can be helpful, like shown on these sites:
http://www.askapatient.com (It has about 360 ratings of effexor)
Also:
http://www.remedyfind.comThen some would argue that negative reports are over-represented on sites like these, including Babble.
