Hi,
Been on Venlafaxine 70mg per day about 9 days. One of the side effects is difficulty passing urine - I can cope with this during the day but it's disrupting what little sleep I get as I'm driven to the loo repeatedly by the urge to pee but can only pass a small amount.
Does this side effect diminish with time?

It sounds like you have a urine infection. I get them repeatedly since being on venlafaxine. Antibiotics will sort it out for you.
How are you doing on day 9?

I'm afraid I get simular. I didn't realise it maybe medication related. I still get it now and I have been on venlaxifine for 10 months. I really hope this calms down for you. Usually the side effects of medication do diminish with time.

See your doctor asap. This is not an overly common side effect but it is one you don't want.
I suspect medication will be changed.
