Which is better for anxiety: SNRIs or SSRIs?

SSRIs are more efficient than SNRIs, but this is just one example.

Although SNRIs are more effective than selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), there is no evidence to support their effectiveness in treating depression. One treatment may be more effective than another for some people.

You may also wonder what the differences are between SSRIs and SNRI antidepressants. The major difference between SSRIs & SNRIs lies in the fact that SSRIs block the reuptake serotonin, while SNRIs stop the reuptake serotonin. SSRI stands to be selective serotonin reuptake inhibit and SNRI stands as serotonin reuptake and inhibitor.

You may then wonder, "How does SNRI help with anxiety?"

SNRIs are used to reduce the amount of neurotransmitters that a person's brain cells absorb. SNRIs work to stabilize these neurotransmitters and can improve a person’s mood, anxiety, and panic attacks.
