Thanks for your response. I just wanted to pass this along since I thought it was interesting and haven't been able to find much info on this drug since it is so new. I came across an article that was talking about Effexor and Cymbalta-comparing their effects of norepinephrine and serotonin. The article discussed having to take the larger doses of Effexor to get the NE effects, but it also said ,in regards to Cymbalta, that it seemed that the blockade of NE was probably very weak until the 60 mg dose was reached. This might explain why a few posters have said they had less sedation on the 60 mg dose. Anyway, now I am really looking forward to upping my dose so I might get more of the NE reuptake effects.
