What does an imbalance in noradrenaline causes ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Raise blood pressure: Too much noradrenaline or norepinephrine causes increased heart rate, increased blood pressure and "opens up" airways to make it easier to breath if you are having bronchospasm or an asthmatic/allergic reaction. It is usually used in emergent situations to increase blood pressure when it is dangerously low. But in someone with a heart condition, it can cause too much stress on the heart as well.

Why did effexor (venlafaxine) start helping at 150mg when max celexa and max zoloft didn't? I'm reading noradrenaline doesn't kick in until >150, so it's not that.
