SNRI's and tricylic antidepressants?
they both block nor-epi and seratonin re-uptake so why do they have different classifications?

Although they both have the same action, they have different chemical structures and its dosage is also different which makes for a difference in classification. SNRI's are considered safer than Tricyclic antidepressants.
