REPORT

This is an antidepressant that can help with some types of nerve pain. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and mood changes.

Lisa, you should follow your doctor's instructions, taking them both could lead to a dangerous condition called Serotonin Syndrome, according to FDA black box warnings, and it has the potential to be fatal. And the only way to see how well Cymbalta will work for is by trying it. Have you taken it, yet?

I HAVE BEEN TAKING WELLBUTRIN FOR OVER A YEAR AND THIS HAS SEEMED TO WORK. MY DOCTOR IS NOW SWITCHING MY MEDS TO CYMBALTA AND SAYS I CANNOT TAKE THE TWO TOGETHER. WHAT SIDE EFFECS COULD OCCUR FROM TAKING BOTH, AND SHOULD I CHOICE TO ONLY TAKE THE CYBALTA WILL THIS BE AS AFFECTIVE AS WELLBUTRIN HAS BEEN?

Yes, I take Cymbalta, and have for approx 6 month. I was diagnosed with human parvovirus, and the fibromyaglia is here to stay. It has does wonders for me. Lifted my spirit as well as has addressed my pain! I'm not as stiff, and my pain has greatly reduced. Its an interesting high. I'm an athlete, and I can really tell the difference when I don't take it. thanks Lee
