> *Sexual disturbances are reported less than with SSRIs.
I don't think the above statment is true.
Anyway Effexer IS a SSRI that also has a norepinephrine effect if you go up to 150mg/day. As such, it is called a SNRI - but that is a bit missleading.
I think they had to change the PDR listing because there were more sexual side effects than originally thought.
For me, it made sex more enjoyable (closeness lower anxiety) - except I could not reach orgasim most of the time. Kind of a double edged sword.
