In reply to My pdoc wants me to try Cymbalta, posted by Mildred on February 22, 2005, at 10:57:29
I think that Cymbalta and Wellbutrin might be a good combination since you are hitting serotonin and norepinephrine with Cymbalta, and dopamine with Wellbutrin.
If that doesn't work, and if Nardil worked before, I would go back to Nardil.
> But I am hesitant because it is so new, and because I have such a difficult time getting off medications and starting new ones. I am currently on a combo of Wellbutrin XL (300 mg) and Lexapro (5 mg) and, while I am functional and not in terrible emotional pain, I am not particularly happy, motivated, comfortable in social situations, or able to focus on/stay with anything either. Many years ago, I responded very positively to Nardil, but went off of it to try some of the newer, safer drugs. Any experiences and/or info that anybody can share (negative or positive) about Cymbalta would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance -
