Why would MD suggest SNRI for anxiety?

Posted by Prefect on December 10, 2012, at 19:38:24

MD wants to take me off Luvox and put me on Pristiq, an SNRI. Why would a norepinephrin reuptake inhibitor be perscribed for panic disorder and anxiety? Isn't norepinephrin what causes the fight-or-flight reaction?
