> I have counted 2 capsules of 30mg cymbalta to determine how many pellets are in 1 mg dose. Guess what? There was an 8% deviation between the 2 samples I had. One contained 315 pellets and the other had 292. So... on the average of 303 pellets per 30mg dose, 10 pellets is approximately a 1mg dose. I would like oyhers to take a count and we can compare numbers! And I thought medicine manfacturing was a refined science.HA -Gnepig
I believe that drug companies are allowed to have a 20% differce either way in the amount of active drug the pills deliver. You may get a little more or a little less than expected in each pill. But for the most part I wouldn't think that would be enough to be worried about.Dieselman
