Apart from Reboxetine, Wellbutrin and TCAs;
Are there other NRI medications out there that could be prescribed by my pdoc? (stimulants are not a possibilty)

I'm guessing you want meds prescribed for depression & not ADD/ADHD, since you said that stimulants are not a possibility?
Cymbalta, Effexor & Pristiq are SNRIs, serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, that are used to treat depression and some other conditions like generalized anxiety disorder and fibromyalgia. I'm not aware of any other NRIs besides Strattera.
What's your diagnosis?

I was planning to use a NRI as an augment with MAOIs for anxiety/depression.
Strattera/Atomoxetine is sadly contraindicated with MAOIs and also marketed for ADHD, which will most likely be problematic to get prescribed from my pdoc.
