What Causes Nightmares And Bed Wetting Despite Taking Cymbalta For Anxiety?
My 23 old daughter is in nursing school, under stress, she takes clonopan, BCP, and Cymbalta for anxiety. She also has Scoliosis. She is adopted so I have no other medical history. She is 50 -pounds overweight but works out and has dropped some lately She has had nightmares, the doc increased her Cymbalta and they went away. She took herself off of the Cymbalta but is now back on and noticed bed wetting twice and nightmares again. Is this stress or could it be the medication? Thanks so much, I am her mom!
