Cymbalta 30mg.for Nerve Damage In Back

Updated

Cymbalta was prescribed to help nerve pain as a result of a cut nerve during surgery. I have been on it for 6-7 weeks and have little relief. My oncologist wants be to go off of it so I've been taking one every other day. I'm having bad pains now. Is this from weaning off.?

Hello, Ali! Sorry about the pain that you're in.

Yes, it may be a rebound effect from tapering them, some medications can do that.

Why does he want you to discontinue it?

What are you taking to treat the pain now?
