>... the antidepressant activity of Effexor changes at increasing dosages (changes from an SRI to an SRI + NRI and eventually, at very high doses, to a SRI + NRI + DRI). S = serotonin; N = norepinephrine; D = dopamine; and RI = reuptake inhibitor. Also, when incresing the dose, you can temporarily get some of the side effects back that you would have noticed when you started the Effexor. I haven't seen Paxil used in conjunction with Effexor, but maybe someone else in babbleland has. Hope this helps - Cam W.
> Cam, at what doses does Effexor-XR affect l) serotonin, 2) norepinephrine, and 3) dopamine? what changes does this have on feelings of depression and/or OCD? Thanks!Still didn't get an answer (question got archived) and am still curious about Effexor-XR's effects on various neurotransmitters--Thanks!
