Hi,
Thanks for asking.
I am Dr. Prakash HM and I will be answering your query.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows:
1. Yes, cymbalta is known to cause sexual dysfunction.
2. Viagra does work with Cymbalta. Both have different methods of action. Viagra acts mainly at local level, while cymbalta acts at the central nervous system level due to its action on serotonin.
Hope it helps.
