peer agreement (net): -1synergistic effect Explanation: Venlafaxine and mirtazapine in combination are increasingly used in clinical practice to treat treatment-refractory depression. Putative efficacy for this combination of antidepressants, beyond that of monotherapy, stems from their synergistic actions. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18330778 Therefore it is thought that mirtazapine enhances noradrenaline and serotonin transmission by blockade of these receptors. And thus augmentation of venlafaxine with mirtazapine is due to a synergistic effect on serotonergic systems. http://www.neneccg.nhs.uk/resources/uploads/files/Venlafaxin... |

peer agreement (net): +3drive-enhancing effect Explanation: "A moderate anxiolytic effect was found in the nomifensin group, whereas medication had to be discontinued in two desimipramine-treated patients because of its drive-enhancing effect." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/786670 "The results showed that moclobemide was as effective as maprotiline (HDRS, Zung SDS); moclobemide appeared to have the same antidepressant and anxiolytic activity, but a stronger drive-enhancing effect." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7954482 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2015-09-15 14:06:24 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Der Grosse Reuter (Springer Universalwörterbuch Medizin Pharmakologie Zahnmedizin) has "Antriebssteigerung: augmentation of drive" |
