Suggest Treatment For Anxiety And Depression Despite Taking Cymbalta
I have been on cymbalta 30mg for a month n have suffered very bad anxiety n am depressed more then ever. Doc has taken me off it n I was wondering what sort of withdrawal symptoms could I expect. I have to wait 3days until a new antidepressant will be taken
Cymabalta (duloxetine) is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and is used as an antidepressant. You have been on this medication for only about a month. Withdrawal symptoms are unlikely to develop when used for around 4 weeks or less. I wouldn't expect any withdrawal symptoms or if it happens, then it would be mild. I hope the above information solves your query. Thanks for posting your question on healthcaremagic. Have a great day.
