What Causes Dizziness, Sweating And Heart Palpitations After Reducing The Dosage Of Effexor?
I went to half my dose of Effexor for two weeks then finished my last one last weekend. I have not felt well since yesterday morning when I was dizzy, sweaty, pounding head, fluttery chest feeling. I haven t broken out in sweat again but the rest of the symptoms have still been around. Just been feeling strange

Hi,
It is suggestive of cold turkey. Based on the history you seem to be suffering from discontinuation syndrome of Effexor. Consult your doctor if symptoms do not subside or become troublesome.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
