Pristiq is a prescription medication approved for the treatment of depression in adults. It may improve your mood, feelings of well-being, and energy level. Desvenlafaxine is a serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI). This medication works on the central nervous system to elevate mood by increasing the amount of serotonin and norepinephrine that are present in certain parts of the brain.
