What Causes Rashes On The Abdomen While On Effexor?
I recently increased my dose of Effexor to 75mg ER. I have developed hives on my abdomen and back, elevated heart rate and feel a bit short of breath or a heaviness in my chest. I left a message for my MD but, have not heard back. I took this medication today at approximately 1100. Can I just ride this out or should i go to urgent care. What is the treatment for this adverse reaction?
