How did you switch from Effexor to Cymbalta...

Posted by Colleen D. on November 18, 2004, at 15:39:38

and did you have any problems??? My pdoc told me to go from 150mg Effexor to 75mg Effexor for 3 days and then take 75mg Effexor every other day for 3 days and then start at 20mg of Cymbalta for a week and then step up to 40mg the next week. Any experiences or suggestions? I also take .5mg of Klonopin twice a day and 25mg of Doxepin to help me with insomnia/racing thoughts at night.
Thanks for any wisdom you can share!!!
Oh, also is it best to take the Cymbalta in the morning or at night?
