I have been taking Effexor XR (dose 225mg) for 10 years. Changed to generic when it became available 4 yrs ago ? I recently have developed an itchy, red, bumpy rash on trunk arms and upper legs. Dr. says maybe drug, maybe Effexor? No abnormal labs. I have allergic sensitivities to chemicals in products used on my skin. I use all "hypoallergenic" products. I don't want to stop the Effexor cause it still works for me. Has anyone had this problem? Should I switch to something else just in case? The rash is not going away with any treatment and I scratch till I bleed..Got to do something..Thank You
