    Cymbalta was prescribed in 2016 for GAD. It has changed my life. It is wonderful. I take it just before bedtime and sleep like a baby. No more anxiety. No side effects. My does is 80 mg. Would not every be without it.

    I suffered from anxiety disorder all of my life. I jumped from 5mg escitalopram to 30g of Duloxetine. Didnt feel any major change. After a month I doubled to 60 mg now I feel terrible and extermly anxious.

      I do not know what's best for your specific situation, but talking to your provider about changing the timing of when you take the medication, decreasing the dose, or using a supplement or other sleep aid, could be very helpful. CBT-I (CBT for insomnia) is also a type of therapy that can be extremely helpful for insomnia. I hope that this is helpful. Sincerely, - Dr. Pagnani

      I switched to lexapro and don’t have the same side effects. I’ve been on it 2 weeks. I’m also taking a sedative at the same time.
      It’s to get over my social phobia and the depression that my social anxiety has caused.

    Cymbalta made me have gut problems, which I have anyway, just made it worse, so I switched over to Zoloft. Worst experience I’ve ever had with changing antidepressants! I titrated the Cymbalta down and waited a week (maybe two) before starting the Zoloft. My depression and anxiety got BAD during the transition but I made it! Now I’m a happy camper again! 🎉😊. I hope I never have to go back on Cymbalta though because it was HELL coming off of it.

      When I started Cymbalta - a month ago (30mg) it first kept me awake for 24 hours. It leaves me more spaced out and forget things but I will take that over feeling depressed or anxious.

    Does duloxetine treat ocd?

    • @RittenhousePsych
      @RittenhousePsych  Год назад +3

      Yes, duloxetine is a medication that I have utilized to treat OCD in many patients. Providers will often start with SSRIs (duloxetine is an SNRI) BUT, there may be reasons why someone would start (or continue) duloxetine, and it may be a great option for many. Thank you for watching and your question! - Dr. Pagnani

      Palpitations and changes in heart rhythm and vitals can be a side effect. It would not be common for them to be serious, but it's possible. Because of this, It's very important to discuss directly with your provider, to make sure that there is nothing serious occurring. Sometimes it does take individuals some time to adjust to these types of medications, but as you're not under my care directly, it's important that you follow your provider's direction and if symptoms worsen, to get immediate help. Sincerely, - Dr. Pagnani

      it is only officially approved for generalized anxiety disorder (in the context of anxiety disorders)
      that doesn't mean it can't be used to treat that, just that we only know it has efficacy in generalized anxiety disorder, i would talk to your psychiatrist about this
