Federico Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum. I was wondering, has anyone here (or in the world) sucessfully withdrawed from Cymbalta (duloxetine) and had stayed drugfree permanently? I have been taking cymbalta for more than 10 years, and I know about the tapering method of 10% reduction per month (which seems reasonable to me), but was wondering if anyone has actually been successful and off it for good? Thanks everyone! 2002 - 2019 Cymbalta 100mg 2006 - 2019 Clonazepam 3mg No taper as of now. Link to comment

This is your thread, you can ask your questions here, and journal. Firstly, could you please fill in a drug signature. Someone will send you a link. If you go to the top of this page, put Cymbalta in the search engine and you’ll find others that are tapering off Cymbalta, or have tapered off it.
