Research all the potential allergic reactions to Venlafaxine, as well as the possible side effects. If you are taking other drugs, find out if they can potentially interact with Venlafaxine and what the side effects of such an interaction can be. Medicine for pain, swelling, arthritis and fever, for example, can cause easy bruising and bleeding when taken with Venlafaxine.
