After failed trials on MAOI's I've had to revisit old AD's that worked in the past. I've been on Lexapro for 6 weeks with no partial response. Pdoc suggested I try Cymbalta as he's hoping it could also help my fibromyalgia which feeds into my depression.
He gave me two months worth of samples but they are 60 mg. capsules. I'm currently taking 20 mg. Lexapro. He said I could stop the Lex and start at 60 of Cymbalta but also stated it could be a rough ride.
Has anybody done this and if so how rough was it?
I'm at the last of my med options and would rather give Cymbalta a trial instead of retrying Zoloft which very well may not work for me again either.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I hope this makes sense as I've stayed up way too late and am not thinking very clearly!
