[Hypersensitivity pneumonitis due to venlafaxine].

Venlafaxine is a selective serotonin, noradrenalin, and dopamine reuptake inhibitor. Although side effects are rare, venlafaxine has very occasionally been associated with hypersensitivity pneumonitis. We report the case of a 61-year-old woman diagnosed with depressive disorder and treated with venlafaxine (Dobupal) at a dose of 150 mg/d for 18 months.
