Heart palpitations

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi,

I'm just wondering if anyone had heart palpitations whilst on venlafaxine and how long they lasted for please?  Ive been on 150mg for about 10 weeks and they are still very prominent and up and down?

    I'm pushing this post back to the top as I'm still interested in knowing if anyone else has experienced heart palps whilst on these and how long did they last?
