Hiya
Anyone taking above? If so any side effects?
I’ve been taking Duloxetine 60mg twice daily for couple of years Now and have not noticed any side effects
I was prescribed duloxetine for chronic pain. The Dr told me I would start on a low dose and that this would gradually increase many fold over a few months. I took the first pill just before bed time and my side effects were bad (I woke at 1am unable to sleep any more, I felt nausea, I lost my appetite) so I took no more. I phoned the GP to cancel the prescription and he wasn’t happy and tried to persuade me to persevere, but I stood my ground.
When you research this family of drugs there are a lot of controversial claims about them, especially on side effects. And for chronic pain you need 5 patients on them to find 1 patient with a 50% reduction in pain.
