Low Dose Naltrexone

I have taken Cymbalta and landed in the hospital for 3 days with serotonin syndrome in 2018 and a year later in 2019 I was in the hospital again for 5 days with low blood sodium from taking Cymbalta. I couldn't get off of it so I kept taking it for another year after they told me to back off of it but I got so sick when I skipped a dose that I kept taking it. BTW, I was taking 30mg daily. My husband has taken it for years for fibromyalgia with no side effects. There are many drugs that don't agree with me that most people can take with success.

How dreadful! I had a similar experience with Paxil. By the third day on it I thought my head would explode. Couldn’t stand up, and started speaking with a foreign accent! Ambulance hauled me off to the ER. I’ve had lots of problems with other drugs too. That’s why I was so happy to find that LDN works for me. Side effects are rare and usually mild - and especially with micro dosing.
