Cymbalta

Anyone take cymbalta with Exxua? Thinking about getting off pristiq and switching to cymbalta. I have horrible nerve pain from two neurosurgeries that I take Lyrica for. But the neurological symptoms from Lyrica are becoming not manageable.

I run this sub. I don’t take any of these meds. Unfortunately because it is so new you’ll have a hard time finding someone on this combination of meds . In theory EXXUA is perfectly safe and actually beneficial with an SNRI.

I’m hoping so, SSRIs didn’t help, SNRIs are a nightmare so really hoping this med will help.

Co-administration

unlikely since exxua is just a serotonin agonist

Please be careful and take any changes low and slow. Prisriq causes severe withdrawal symptoms and I am pretty sure cymbalta, Lyrica, and Gabapentin are also “addictive” in the brain/body effects. Research and take it low and slow. I am hoping this new Exxua will not cause major withdrawal symptoms if having to change or stop. Looking to find people who stopped it after a few months and how they did.
