I have just started Ven 75mg slow release and have not had any nausea at all, this is day 9 so I guess if I was to feel it it would have been over the first few days. I think you just need to take the plunge and perhaps not read the side affect label when you get them so you don't dwell on anything.

If citalopram didn't trigger vomiting then venlafaxine is also unlikely too.


but my anxiety is awful right now am at the sucidal part I just wanna die like now

I urge you to discuss how you're feeling with your GP asap as there are ways of minimising your distress. Particularly please tell the GP about your suicidal thoughts.

How are you doing ?
Did you manage to start your Ven if so, how do you feel.
