Selective Serotonin and Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRI)
Anxiety is believed to possibly be caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain. Serotonin-Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs) can correct that chemical imbalance and allow people with anxiety to function normally. SNRIs are typically used under specific circumstances. Venlafaxine is the only drug for anxiety in this class. Venlafaxine is usually used for anxiety if recommended by a mental health specialist.
