> Oh yes! I agree. I started at 30mg and did experience a few uncomfortable side effects the first couple of weeks, but others may have to start even lower.**Minnie, we're talking 3 pellets slow to start with - probably .01 mg. Please let me stress that the intention of this thread is not to praise Cymbalta in general, but to alert people that micro doses, impossibly small doses, may work well where low to standard doses are far too potent.
Cymbalta is an unusual med and some can take it, others are having a horrible time at even 1 mg. But reduce that to 15 or so pellets and voila, you've got a wonderful drug. So, I'm just trying to get word out about how effective this unusual dosing method can be.
