Headache, nausea/vomiting, and reduced sleep can occur as early side effects of venlafaxine, especially in the first few weeks. Do not stop it suddenly on your own, as this can cause withdrawal symptoms. If the side effects are mild, they may settle with time, but if they are severe or persistent, please consult your doctor soon to adjust the dose or change the medicine safely.
