Hello, Katrina! How are you?

Yes, if you weren't taking it for awhile, then started again, it is normal to experience side effects, again.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of Pristiq as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, weight changes, dry mouth and mood swings.

Is there anything else I can help with?
