Are my night sweats caused by my Effexor or my IUD? Is it possible to do anything to reduce them?

Excessive sweating at night can be a common side effect of venlafaxine, especially at doses higher than 75mg. To reduce this side effect, it may be helpful to discuss options with your pharmacist, such as decreasing the dose, discontinuing the medication, or switching to a different one. Adding a small dose of another medication could also potentially alleviate the problem. It's important to consult with a healthcare professional to address your concerns and find the best solution for you.
