Are you aware of the side effects associated with each medication?

Esomeprazole (Nexium) lists "excessive tiredness" as a serious side effect that should be addressed by your doctor as soon as possible.

Cymgen (Generic Cymbalta) also listed "tired feeling" and "drowsiness" as common side effects.

It's difficult to say which medication is doing it more than the other (if not equally), but none the less, I'd recommend contacting your doctor to get a better evaluation of what's going on and how you should effectively handle it. It may be that you need to change medications to something less harsh on your system.

I hope this helps!

Thank you David, i am aware of the side effects, but was hoping to eliminate at least one of them, both meds are helping greatly for the original dis ease, but will definately follow your advice ......... too harsh for my system. thanks much

Gymgen does cause drowsiness and laziness- it goes away after a month or so.....and causes acid, and insomnia. Nexium is trying to control the acid. Been on both, and both together. I recently discovered that CITRO-SODA which is a gastric antacid and urinary alkalinising agent, works much better than Nexium (which is quite pricey) Here is the link for more specific details: home.intekom.com/pharm/adcock/citrosod.html
