Taken from the following study:

http://cat.inist.fr/?aModele=afficheN&cpsidt=2585906

"Duloxetine (5.0 mg/kg, s.c.) and fluoxetine (10.0 mg/kg, s.c.) increased dialysate levels of DA (65 and 60% vs. basal values, respectively), NAD (400 and 90%, respectively), and 5-HT (130 and 110%, respectively) in the frontal cortex (FCX)."

If I'm interpreting this correctly Duloxetine increases norepinephrine more than serotonin or dopamine in the PFC. Perhaps this isn't true through out the brain but it probably has clinical significance.
