I know we all react differently to drugs, but I have seen a few npostings, here
and on
other sites, that states doctors prescribe
Effexor,
and other anti-depressants to help relieve the intensity of hot flashes.
If this is so, why do I get the side effect of hot flashes? I am in my 70s, so long time since I stopped having menopausal hot flashes. How come doctors know that anti-depressant help with hot flashes?
