Cara-
I don't know much about the Effexor at all. All I can tell you is that I do have alcohol with the Wellbutrin. I don't drink often but if I go out once a month with friends I will have a glass of wine or two. If I think it might be more then I don't take my pill that night. I take it at night so as not to be drowsy during the day. I also only take 150mg of it. The doctor told me I could take two a day but to start out with one as see how that worked. I don't like taking medicine so I started with the one and stuck with it. I really had no side effects from the Wellbutrin, but I also had been on Lexapro for a year. With the Lexapro I had some nausea for about 3 days and night sweats for about a week. I also was really tired taking it during the day so my doctor told me to take it at night before I went to bed. That seemed to work. The best advice I can tell you is to relax and talk with your doctor and decide which is best for you. HTH!
