Hi lela,
My boyfriend has been on effexor since mid July. He has been sweating more, he did sweat from other meds in the past... but there is a marked difference. So my energy bill is high and the A/C is on even if it is 60 degrees outside ;)
If the effexor helps your boyfriend, and if he is anything like mine, resure him that the sweating side effect will go away over time. I believe it will, if it doesn't, then you just deal with that in the future. This medication helps, the other SSRI's didn't. It has helped both anxiety and depression for my boyfriend, no other side effects.
Regarding other resources you have your webmd.com, rxlist.com, try bipolarworld.com, and type your question into search engines like metacrawler.com.
