I have been on effexer xr for about 2 years, 150mg. I am a smoker, at least a pack a day, if not more. I'm also on 100 mg of wellbutrin. I smoke more now than I did 2 years ago. Before the effexor, I was on 300mg wellbutrin, and was unable to quit smoking on that dosage. The only side effects I have from the effexor is a 15 lb weight gain. Also, if I miss a few doses, I get headaches, and sharp pains in my head and have had uncontrollable crying spells.

The interesting thing though is that I was a drinker, but now I rarely have any desire for alcohol of any kind. Maybe once a month I'll have a drink. My friends have even asked me why I don't drink much anymore.
