You said , "Do not start it..." But we need to remember that every single person is different, and reacts differently to medication/surgery/therapy/supplements. I am like @ams - duloxetine gave me back my life after being a virtual couch potato, just hunkered down and miserable. My dose varies from 60 - 150 MG per day, depending on my symptoms, and I have never had an issue either reducing or increasing the dose.
So, as a fellow Connect member,
I might tell others "be cautious, I had [describe unpleasant reaction] to that medication/treatment. But the other person must feel free to consider my opinion but make their own decisions.
What do you use in place of duloxetine?
