Hi Racer.
> I always gotta ask when it's NE related, since that seems to be key for me.
As of today, how would you rate your degree of recovery from depression? What is missing? What is there too much of?

Viloxazine has been around for a long time in France. I know virtually nothing about it other than it being touted as being a selective norepinephrine (NE) reuptake inhibitor. It has been my impression that it never became very popular, but that it is probably more effective than reboxetine, another NE reuptake inhibitor. Perhaps viloxaxine is not as "clean" and selective as was once thought. It has not been investigated as intensively over the last ten years and subject to the newer investigative techniques.I'm going to check Medline and Google a bit. I think its indication as an orphan drug in the U.S. is for nacolepsy and cataplexy. Like most of the tricyclic drugs, it suppresses REM sleep.
