When considering treatment options for depression and anxiety disorders, it’s important to compare the efficacy, side effect profiles, and administration routes of available medications. Below is a comparison of venlafaxine with other commonly used antidepressants:
| Medication | Use Case | Side Effect Risk | Cost (Generic) | Administration |
| Venlafaxine | Depression, Anxiety Disorders | Moderate (nausea, hypertension) | Low | Oral (IR, ER) |
| Sertraline | Depression, Anxiety Disorders | Low (GI upset, sexual dysfunction) | Low | Oral |
| Bupropion | Depression, Smoking Cessation | Low (insomnia, dry mouth) | Low | Oral |
| Escitalopram | Depression, Anxiety Disorders | Low (nausea, sexual dysfunction) | Low | Oral |
Venlafaxine is often prescribed when SSRIs like sertraline are ineffective. It may carry a higher risk of side effects such as elevated blood pressure but may also improve energy and concentration.
