I am on 120mgs of Cymbalta. My doc says I have to go off it in my third trimester. I have been noticing all of these commercials about anti-depressants harming the baby. With my other pregnancies I was on Prozac, evidently they now feel Prozac is harmful to the baby. The doc says theres not enough research on Cymbalta to know the effects. I have been taking Cymbalta for about 3yrs now, as long as I take it like I'm suppose to I'm a happy camper. Although the effects of going off of it scares me to death. I've been on a ton of different meds but never have I experienced anything as scary as missing more than 2 days of this med. I have cut my dose down to 60mgs a day so that I wont be suddenly going off such a high dose.
Anyone with any experience with this drug please help.
