In reply to What is the Current Buzz on Cymbalta??????, posted by invisibleman15010 on August 15, 2006, at 7:05:48
Cymbalta has worked very well for me. I did have some sexual side effects, but added some Wellbutrin to overcome that problem. I've been quite pleased with Cymbalta overall, but many others here have not been so happy.
The other downside was intense sweating for the first two months or so. I was taking it with Ritalin in the morning and I was sweating a lot for a few hours after I took the meds.
The manufacturer submitted a request to have Cymbalta approved as a GAD treatment as well. I wonder if I should go up to 60mg (I've been on either 20 or 40 so far) and see if I could get rid of Ativan at that higher Cymbalta dosage.
