The following is a comparison of concentration (nmol/L) of SSRIs needed to inhibit specific neurotransmitter uptake by half:

1. Serotonin:

Fluoxetine = 6.8; Fluvoxamine = 3.8; Sertraline = 0.19; Paroxetine = 0.29; Citalopram = 1.8

2. Dopamine:

Fluoxetine = 5000; Fluvoxamine = 42000; Sertraline = 48; Paroxetine = 81; Citalopram = 40000

3. Norepinephrine:

Fluoxetine = 370; Fluvoxamine = 620; Sertaline = 160; Paroxetine = 81; Citalopram = 6100


> I heard on a Grand Rounds at Univ. of CA, Los Angeles that paroxetine inhibits norepinephrine 40%. Could that be true? I know that Citalopram has no action on norepinephrine, though.
