I have been on Cymgen 60mg for almost 5 years. Quite happy taking it, although it causes serious insomnia for me. My concern is, what do I do when it is no longer affordable. I am 58years old and I know money could become a problem eventually. Will I be able to wean off after such a long term?

I suffer from anxiety and panic disorder. I started taking cilift two years ago, but I had most of the side effects and gained nearly 15kg in the year I was on it, so I stopped taking it and have been on Zopax, 1mg a day. My panic attacks stopped for a few months and I felt fantastic, but 3 weeks ago they started coming back in full force and now I can't relax at all. My docter put me onto Cymgen, but I am too scared to take it because of all the side effects and negative comments posted about it. I don't know what to do!

Hi Katy,

Sorry to hear about the side effects you've been having recently.

Based on my research, It certainly sounds like Cymgen is the cause behind all of your pain...

The following symptoms are listed as side effects of Cymgen (duloxetine):

blurred vision
headache
confusion
changes in intimate desire or ability
uncontrollable shaking of a part of the body
swelling of the face, throat, tongue, lips, eyes, hands, feet, ankles, or lower legs

Have you already talked with your doctor about getting off this medication or switching over to something else?
