Hello all. I weaned off and stopped Cymgen (60mg to 30mg) for about a year. I started on Cymgen again (new medication did not help at all with anxiety and panic) but it doesn't help nearly as much as it initially did. Am I resistant to it now? Should I try a generic? Or do I have to look for another drug altogether? ## What dose are you currently taking? Cymgen contains the active ingredient Duloxetine, it is most commonly used to treat anxiety, OCD, and depression. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, mood changes, and weight changes. Ref: Cymgen Information Are you on an other medications? How long were you off the new one that you tried?

Okay, we all suspect that phthalates are bad for you-- they mess up the reproductive system in lab animals. Cosmetic manufacturers are scrambling to remove them from their products because women are afraid they may be absorbed thru the skin. So why is the FDA allowing this suspect stuff to be in medications you take orally... like the generic Cymbalta (duloxtetine, 20mg) manufactured by Citron??? Especially since the majority of people having problems the drug treats, are women. ## The hypromellose phthalate that is listed as an inactive ingredient is an FDA approved excipient. NDC: 57237-0019 While there has been some concern about phthalates, there has been no definitive study proving them to be dangerous, so they are still approved to be used in medications, in limited amounts. It is...

I accidentally lost my Cymgen 60mg while on holiday and it was two days before I was able to get it again. The first day without it I experienced what I can only describe as a "zing" in my head. It's like I can see an electric pulse and feel the vibrations down my body. It's a sharp and quick sensation. Usually occurring when I stand up, or when I move around too much. The second day it got increasingly worse and I started a migraine. Is this normal? ## Yes, any time you've been taking a medication for awhile and suddenly miss a few doses, or stop taking it abruptly, it's normal to experience some mild withdrawal and rebound effects. Cymgen contains the active ingredient Duloxetine, which is an SNRI antidepressant and they can be especially problematic, since the...

I have been taking Teva Duloxetine 60 mg everyday since 2008 for fibromyalgia. My last refill my pharmacy switched manufactures to Solco. They said same thing. IT WAS NOT! My fibromyalgia is worse and I am dizzy and can hardly walk. I feel like I am going through withdrawal. Pharmacist is changing me back. Solco didn't seem like it was the same strength and may be since the capsules were a lot smaller! ## Was this through Walgreen's? Was told the same when picking up my sister's 30mg prescription yesterday and saw that the pills were different. She didn't start taking the pills yet bcuz she still has 3 of the Teva brand left over. I'm afraid they won't take them back if there is a problem once she begins taking the new brand. The pills were like $400. Manufacture...

I need to know the Long Term Effects of taking Cymgen for longer than 6months and will my depression be cured after taking the drug for a while? ## This medication contains the active ingredient Duloxetine, it is an SSNRI antidepressant. The common side effects you can expect may include: nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth and weight gain. However, these should actually taper off, after a few weeks, as your body adjusts to the medication. As to your depression being cure, that really depends on what is causing it. If it is just due to some temporary things that are happening in your life and they clear up, then the medication may be just enough help to get you through this rough patch. However, if your depression is caused by other issues, such as mental illness, then it will more than likel...

Has anyone noticed a difference between the two manufacturers of Duloxetine X 20 and Teva 7543. They are supposed to be the same (just different manufacturers), however, I'm noticing the X 20 doesn't seem to work as well for my fibromyalgia. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

I've been on 60 mg. of duloxetine for neuropathy for 3 months and I've lost nearly 20 pounds. My appetite is nearly nonexistent and I can't tolerate the sight of most foods. Is there anything to counter this side-effect? ## Hello, Buddz! How are you doing? Has there been any change There is really no way to counteract them, but usually such side effects are transient and go away, after about 4 to 5 weeks, once your body gets used to a medication, as detailed by the NIH. Given that it has not gone away for you, it would be best to have it checked out by your doctor, as you may need to try a different medication. Is this the only medication you are taking? ## Thanks for replying, Verwon. My neurologist changed my medication to amitriptylene. It's been a few days and I stil...

Cymgen helps me to cope with many chronic situations and to relax as I should be with a proper mindset. Thanks to our medical science and your excellent good and true feedback, this is lifesaving! ## That is fantastic, I am so happy that it is working so well for you. Have you experienced any side effects, which the NIH lists as possibly including nausea, dizziness, irritability, weight changes, and mood swings? Are you on any other medications? ## Yeah the main thing is to keep cool and know how it also helps with fibromyalgia. I have to take a sleeping tablet to sleep well. ## Yes, I'm also on medications for coronary artery disease, high blood pressure, blood thinning and diabetes type 2.
