I couldn't find it in the article. What were the harmful effects that were referred to?
I had a terrible reaction to reboxetine. It produced a suicidal state with anxiety. I try not to generalize my experiences to others, though. However, I have not seen more than a handful of people take reboxetine while posting on Psycho-Babble. I think one person had a robust response. However, I think that the population of posters here is weighted towards people from the US, where reboxetine is not available. My impression of reboxetine, all in all, is that it is not as effective as the tricyclics, despite robust NE reuptake inhibition properties. Regarding the selectivity of these drugs for NE, desipramine works. Strattera doesn't. I don't think reboxetine does either.
