Only thing Gabapentin did for me was make me gain weight. I am taking 120mg Duloxetine along with 600mg Pregabalin daily for pain control (nerve and chronic joint and other body pain). Works well most of the time. If I do something too physical I get more breakthrough pain. I take Duloxetine in the morning and by taking Pregabalin in the evening hours I sleep better. Duloxetine helps all day long and nerve pain doesn’t keep me awake at night any longer. As an added note I recently attempted to double my Duloxetine and keep Pregabalin at 150mg twice daily for all the pain. Did not work as I developed tardive dyskinesia so dropped Duloxetine dosage back and increased Pregabalin. So far it is working and I’m able to stay asleep.

I am on Duloxetine for Anxiety and depression. Does nothing for the pain. Nor did CymbaltA
