| 1 | Anxiety/depression | Low libido, black outs, no help for depression | M | 42 | 6 months 60mg | 4/3/2014 | 5 | depression bipolar chronic pain | I've only been taking Cymbalta for a few days but I already feel so much better. I finally have the energy I always wanted, I'm being productive, and enjoying my life. Side effects im experiencing are: greater sensitivity to light and taste, headaches, and jaw clenching. Since I just started I don't know if these symptoms will continue, or for how long if they do, but I am willing to put up with them. | F | 30 | 4 days 30 mg | 4/1/2014 | 1 | Fibromyalgia diagnosis | Detached retina, weight gain, dizziness, nausea, short temper, extreme sweating. | I would never recommend this drug to anyone! | F | 55 | 45 days 60mg 1X day | 3/28/2014 | 4 | depression | none | Was great, until I changed insurance plans. Very costly. Changed to inexpensive Prozac without and changes noted, except in my pocketbook. | F | 58 | 4 years 60mg 1X day | 3/18/2014 | 5 | for pain management | Cymbalta has helped me get my life back. The side effects are minor compared to the benefit, dry mouth, gained around 10-15 and crazy vivid dreams nothing scary. I recommended it to anyone that is not suffering from depression or diabetes. It works better then opined, staying clean and getting things back in order. | F | 37 | 1 days 40mg | 3/17/2014 | 1 | depression | my side effects are probably caused by the toxins in the inactive ingredients! FD&C blue No. 2 SODIUM LAURYL SUFATE ( A CORROSIVE) and sugar. are the pharmacies companies trying to kill us slowly!!!!!! | I WILL STOP TAKING THIS DRUG BECAUSE OF THE TOXINS AND SINCE I HAVE HYPERSENSITIVITIES WHICH IS PROBABLY THE PROBLEM WITH THIS DRUG!!!!!!!!! | F | 60 | 10 days 60mg 1X day | 3/14/2014 | 4 | Moderate chronic depression | Honestly, none that I can recall other than the usual dry mouth. | I just went back on this after a really crappy experience on Pristiq...don't know why I ever switched meds in the first place! I was more depressed on Pristiq and I gained 10 pounds. Cymbalta never affected my weight or caused any other troubling side effects. I won't make the samemistake twice! | F | 38 | 1 years 30 mg 1X day | 3/13/2014 | 4 | Depression. | Weight loss. A little memory zap. | F | 49 | 1 days 60mg | 3/12/2014 | 5 | Depression | Sore throat, tiredness, headache, weight loss. Amazing medicine for me. No more crying everyday. No more getting upset at simple things. I weighed 165lbs when I started taking cymbalta and I'm 115 now (I'm 5'7). | F | 38 | 2 years 30mg | 3/6/2014 | 2 | Depression | Worked great at first but now I'm always exhausted, have a horrible non-stop ringing in my ears, feel like I have uncontrolled anger often, suicidal thoughts, feel like I'm going to explode & my restless leg syndrome is only increasing. | Going to taper off, hopefully with success! | F | 51 | 6 years 60 1X day | 3/2/2014 | 1 | Depression | Night sweats, sexual dysfunction, hypomania, and others. | M | 29 | 6 months 120mg | 2/21/2014 | 5 | Depression/ Anxiety | The worst I got was Cotton mouth | M | 26 | 3 years 60 | 2/15/2014 | 1 | spinal pain | my mom takes this for back pain, she experiences headaches, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, vision problems, and foggy head. She tried to wean off and all got worse, she would not recommend this drug to anyone. It would be better to take nothing and it never helped the pain either. It is just easier to stay on it than to try to come off. If we had know all these side effects to begin with, never would have started it. IF YOUR DOCTOR RECOMENDAS THIS DRUG-REFUSE IT!!!! | F | 76 | 1 years 60mg day | 2/9/2014 | 1 | depression;nerve pain | horrible peeling ALL over my body(3 weeks) even the SOLES of my feet, I felt like Job, The only places unaffected were my back and the palms of my hands. Took my own self off. | A nightmare although it did remove most of the pain and swelling. However, the price I paid was hardly worth it. Went straight to Lyrica, that was a JOKE, might as well have been on baby aspirin and at a$100.00 now I am back on gabapentin or as call it generic Tylenol. God help me. | F | 57 | 30 days 60 1X day | 2/3/2014 | 5 | for sleep | I have very high tolerance with any kind of sleeping pills I was once on abieim and my doctor changed by medication to50 mg of trazodone and that doesn't help. | F | 54 | 2 days 2X AN | 1/31/2014 | 3 | Depression, fibrogylmia | Sweating, dizziness | F | 53 | 1 days 120mg | 12/29/2013 | 1 | Fibromyalgia and arthritis pain | Excessive sweating, jittery, anxious. Can't sleep then can't stay awake later. Feeling of being outside myself, not thinking clearly. Felt high all the time. | I would rather have the pain I had before starting this medication. These side effects are much worse than the pain. | F | 66 | 2 days 30 1X day | 10/31/2013 | 3 | Depression/Anxiety | EXCESSIVE Sweating- Badly at night. Fatigue 24/7 , Unmotivated, Don't care about anything. | F | 23 | 2 years 60 | 10/30/2013 | 1 | Chronic back pain | Nausea, chills, severe leg twitching, very bad cramping in upper legs at night with sharp pain, headache, swelling under eyes, inability to urinate until later in the day, increase in back pain | I just don't think I can take this drug though I wasn't on it for long. It seemed dangerous given the severity of side effects. I know some people are able to tough it out, but this seemed extreme. I have tried many drugs, and can take opiates without trouble. But the anti-spasmodics and the anti-depressants (exception being Amitriptyline) cause many problems. This is the worst set of side effects I have ever experienced and don't feel it's safe to continue. | 71 | 3 days 30 mg 1X day | 10/12/2013 | 5 | Anxiety and panic | For the first month the side effects were a disaster. I had headaches for the first hour after taking the pill, constipation, loss of appetite, exhaustion, drowsiness and yawning all day, weight loss (which I don't mind) and terrible night sweats. Now five months later I have the night sweats still and I am very tired throughout the day with little energy.But no weight gain or hair loss which I had worried about the most initially. It has been immensely helpful for me so I am willing to put up with the side effects as my anxiety is basically gone. | F | 37 | 5 months 60mg | 10/11/2013 |
