> While zoloft has the highest dopamine reuptake of the ssris, it is still very low. Prozac's ability to stimulate the release of dopamine is hugely more powerful than zoloft's ability to shore up tiny amounts of dopamine. There was a study at pubmed that looked at this very topic. Zoloft came nowhere close to the increase of dopamine that prozac did. Just looking at anecdotal reports, fewer people complain of the ssri numbness thing on prozac than on zoloft.
What about fluoxetine Vs venlafaxine? I suppose that the SNRI wins as it is more "dirty", right?
