Anybody here take Cymbalta for depression?

[momto3]

6. I take cymbalta and welbutrin.

I have been diagnosed with clinical depression, fibromyalgia, peripheral neuropathy and lupus - I take a lot of pills! The depression was diagnosed first and I started the welbutrin. I currently take 450 mg a day. I started the cymbalta for the fibromyalgia pain and it does seem to help. I also noticed that I had less anxiety issues after I started cymbalta. I had almost all of the symptoms listed in the pamphlet when I started, but they all went away within 2 weeks. However, I have never been able to get higher that 30mg twice a day. Higher doses made me so sleepy I could not work. I have not had any problems taking welbutrin and cymbalta together. I also take plaquenil, Imuran and gabapentin for my other issues which often times makes it hard for me to figure out what drug is causing what problem. I do know that, despite some of the side effects, I am much better off when I take them.

Good luck.
