There are 2 types of Cymbalta, regular which is taken twice a day, roughly 12 hours apart, and extended release, taken once a day, typically at bedtime.

Elderly people might not digest their food entirely so extended-release meds might not work for them. I am on diabetes med Metformin but the time release doesn't even begin to dissolve. It comes out whole in the toilet so my doctor put me back on the regular type. Just an idea for oldsters like me.
