@ardeecor I take 1200 2x daily. I handle that well For some cymbalta works for others it is horrible and harmful. I have been tried on anti depressants cfor 30 years a few worked briefly but most were harmful — forgive my cynicism but the MDs do learn about the medicines from the companies’ sales reps. Medical education is by exam not independent research.

@ailsas Hi-I do not know if you meant you are taking 1200 Pregabalin or 1200 “Cymbalta.?”
I hope I misunderstood.
If you are actually taking that much Cymbalta, I hope your dr knows about it because that is 10x the max safe dose.
I take 1200 Pregabalin daily.
My Cymbalta dose is 60 a day.
My dr said the max dose for Cymbalta is 120 mg a day - and that if one were taking more than that regularly, they run the risk of contracting the life-threatening serotonin syndrome.
I have yet to tell my dr about the pregabalin. He is more than happy to prescribe me 600 a day. I am taking up to 2400 of Pregabalin.
I am No doctor so just sayin’ “what’s good for the goose ain’t necessarily good for the gander.”
Take Care.
