The insert with cymbalta says that 40mgs to 60mgs per day is a therapeutic dose. This can be taken once a day or 20mgs-30mgs twice a day.
At 40mgs per day I'm hoping to have enough to work on the depression and overeating (it works as a powerful appetite suppressant for me) without losing complete sexual function.
I like cymbalta enough to stay with it even if it means little to no sexual function. The doc said he would prescribe something for it, like viagra, if need be.
I no longer have insomnia and I'm not taking so many atypical-depression power naps during the day. Cymbalta is definitely making life more enjoyable for me.
