new to the site, so we're laggin.

have tried most AD with horrifying side effects.

have been taking cymbalta for 7 months. started out on 30mg, 1x daily. that dose didn't work. dr. increased to 60mg. 1x daily. (morning)

remained on 60mg for 4-5 wks then hit rock bottom. depression was back to its ole self.

t/pdr increased to 90mg and within a couple of days the depression was better, as if the clouds had opened.

it does help with the depression and severe chronic pain, but right now there is tooooo much going on and she has allowed 120mg for emergency only!
120mg, is the limit.

it was very helpful to read all your responses, it can get overwhelming trying to research each and every medication that does & doesn't work.

summer.
