Greetings !
Well the generic drug for cymbalta is Duloxetine.
Adding Pregabalin ( generic name ) aka Lyrica ( brand name) is also very effective against neuropathy at dose of 75 -300 mg / day, kindly discuss it's use with your doctor.
A combination of duloxetine at dose of 60 mg / day and pregabalin at above mentioned dose can be very helpful against your neurop[athic pain.
I hope this helps.
