> Is it possible to mix both Wellbutrin and Cymbalta? If so how would one take it.
I take 150mg Wellbutrin XL in the morning and 40mg Cymbalta in the evening. I am bipolar type II so I also take a mood stabilizer: 150mg Trileptal in the morning and 300mg in the evening.
> I currently take 90MG of Cymbalta in morning and notice I am getting tired. Not sure if I should break up the cymbalta or augment with Wellbutrin.Have you considered taking the Cymbalta in the evening instead? I took mine in the morning at first, but I kept getting tired in the afternoon, so I switched.
> By the way 30MG worked for about 2 months, then 60MG for another 4 months, and I have been on 90MG now for about 2 weeks.Yikes! Did you increase both times because you were tired? The Wellbutrin has helped me a bit with my appetite (which had been too high) and motivation (which had been too low), but it is interfering just a bit with my sleep now. I'm handling it OK so far, but I slept way better on 60mg Cymbalta before the Wellbutrin. (I had to drop my Cymbalta dose 'cause my blood pressure went up a little.)
