Folks taking the antidepressant Effexor will be happy to hear that a generic form of Effexor XR was approved by the Food and Drug Administration this week. Teva Pharmaceuticals announced that they will begin shipping the drug on July 1, 2010.

Teva is the world’s largest generic drugmaker and hopefully the generic form of Effexor XR will be a big relief for its users pocket books. bjmdjd
