I have been on Cymbalta for 9 months now 60 mg. I am so depressed again, see dr. tomorrow. On effexor I became this addictive person and never want that to happen again. Cymbalta was awesome in the beginning but i feel immune to it again. I heard about Vybrid and how it works for him. I am already overweight and cymbalta does continue to help with pain but no longer the depression . Would Vybrid be good for me. I need to feel better I am not functioning well with day to day I am not suicidal at all just want to feel better help!
Hi there ~ I am sorry you are going through a lot with your depression.  There is hope however since there is room to go up higher on Cymbal ta to a 120 mg daily dosing in divided doses of 60 mg each in the AM and PM.  Please try this for 2-3 weeks, and you might see improvement.  Hybrid is a new medicine of an older generation medicine that is useless almost, i.e. it is old wine in new bottle.  I have not had much experience with it however it does make you Chat Doctor.  I would suggest that if the higher dose of cymbal ta is not helping, you might want to switch to Wellbutrin if you have not had a history of seizures in the past.  Also try other things like psychotherapy, yoga, meditation, Dayana and daily physical exercise.  They have proven evidence in treating depression in medical studies. I hope this helps.  Take care and have a lovely day !
