I had to buy the Ixel from the UK. From what I read, Effexor affects Serotonin and Norepinephrine at a ratio of 30:1. Cymbalta is more potent at both and the ratio is 9.4:1. But with Ixel, the ratio is 1:3 - so that's how it's different. It works more on NE. I suppose this explains the absence of sexual and weight SEs?? I don't know - I can't wait to try it, tho! Should arrive in a few days .... Meanwhile, I have ditched the Lexapro and have been using a lightbox the past three mornings hoping that will help my serotonin levels until the Ixel gets here!
