Hi, I been on venlafaxine XL since 1st April.
Increased to 150mg a week ago.
Feeling much better in myself but for the last 3 days I've completely lost my sense of smell and taste.
Has anyone else ever had this!
Hi Clare, I'm so glad to hear that you are feeling better, I was only thinking about you this morning wondering how you are doing, I too have felt better since I went up to 150mg, there is still room for improvement though, I haven't lost any sense of taste and smell but I still have insomnia, I hope you feel even better in the coming​ weeks and you start to feel back to normal xx
Hi Clare,
Yes I had this. It's just a side effect and it went over time.
