Cymbalta
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

I've been taking Cymbalta for several years at varying doses and recently my p-doc increased the dose from 30mg to 60mg and I am developing a somewhat painful rash (common side effect) on my arm. Anyone have any experience with this? I'll try to reach my doctor this week, but I guess I"ll have to taper back down to 30 which wasn't working all that well. I've been feeling better on 60.

My doctor insists that the rash will happen early on in treatment. I thnk he's wrong. Drug side effects statement clearly says it can occur at any time during treatment. Who to believe?

Do a search on the drug, and find out what are the after effects and how long might they last. As mine, had aggresive or anger, I told a few people off, didnt that feel better up, Yeepserie it sure did!! me being such a passive person, lol lol. It might be best to, go to your pharmacy as is there something you could use to calm the rash down. Till you can see your gp. Good luck
