The outcome measures for that study are all related to decrease of depressive symptoms, they are not measuring increase in happiness.

An SNRI isn't going to make people feel happy or joyous. It may lift the fog of depression and allow one to feel happiness, but it doesn't create it on its own.
Joy in a pill, without long term side effects, doesn't yet exist.
