Cymbalta contains the active ingredient Duloxetine, it is an SNRI antidepressant.

It has been shown to help some people with pain, however, there is no medication that works for everyone person that takes it.

It also may not help your pain if you have been on the same dosage for a long period of time, because your body is used to this dosage.


Is your doctor providing other treatment for your pain?
