My neurologist says that Cymbalta is not a good drug to take because there are too many drug interactions associated with it.  I take Lipitor, levothyroxine, birth control and vyvanse to treat my symptoms associated with multiple sclerosis.  Should I be worried about the meds I am taking currently?  He took me of of Cymbalta and the transition off was MISERABLE and I havent felt the same since.  I would love to take Cymbalta again instead of the Viibryd I now take.  I feel dopey and I believe the norepinephrine really made my life so much better.  I have a 7 year old son who needs a Mom with some get up and go.  I will be turning 50 this next month and quality of life is should be as great as possible.  I have a great attitude but when a person lives with MS and a spunky 7 year old boy, I need all of the help I can get.  THANK YOU,  AAAAA
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. I agree with your neurologist that cymbal ta can be associate with a lot of Chat Doctor.  However, I also agree with you that if not taking cymbal ta makes your life miserable, then, we must restart it. If you had taken cymbal ta without any adverse effects, then, there is no reason why you can not go back to it. If needed, you can start at a lower dose and build up the dose gradually. Please discuss this with your neurologist. Best wishes,
