If you overdose on Cymbalta, call your doctor or seek medical attention immediately. You may require emergency medical care.
Are Cymbalta and Xanax the same thing?
No, Cymbalta and Xanax are different medications.
Cymbalta is a serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) used to treat depression, anxiety, and chronic pain. Meanwhile, Xanax (alprazolam) is a benzodiazepine used to treat anxiety and panic disorders. Unlike Xanax, Cymbalta is not a controlled substance, so it can be prescribed online.
About Cymbalta (duloxetine)
Cymbalta (duloxetine) is an antidepressant medication that affects the brain. As a serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI), Cymbalta helps re-establish the balance of hormones in the brain to regulate neurotransmitter imbalances due to depression and anxiety.
Cymbalta is available only by prescription. It is also available in a generic formulation under duloxetine. It’s always important to follow the specific instructions on your prescription, as they can vary based on the formulation and dosage prescribed.
If you're prescribed Cymbalta, complete the entire course of the SNRI unless your doctor specifically tells you to stop. If you don’t complete your prescription, the SNRI may not fully treat your depression, anxiety, or nerve pain.
Cymbalta uses
There are several FDA-approved uses for Cymbalta, but your healthcare provider may also prescribe it off-label to treat other medical conditions.
Your PlushCare doctor may prescribe Cymbalta for the following reasons or other reasons not listed here. Ask your online doctor or pharmacist if you have questions about why a medication is prescribed.
Depression and anxiety
Cymbalta is FDA-approved to treat the major depressive disorder (MDD) and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Like other norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, Cymbalta helps increase serotonin and norepinephrine availability in the brain to regulate mood.
Neuropathic pain (nerve pain)
Cymbalta is FDA-approved to help regulate neuropathic pain, including chronic musculoskeletal pain caused by diabetic neuropathy. Cymbalta regulates the activity of neurotransmitters in the central nervous system, which helps reduce pain perception and improve mood.
Fibromyalgia and arthritis
Cymbalta is FDA-approved to treat fibromyalgia and chronic musculoskeletal pain, including chronic lower back pain and osteoarthritis.
Cymbalta side effects
The side effects associated with taking Cymbalta are typically mild. Individuals taking Cymbalta report a variety of side effects, and side effects may vary from patient to patient.
The side effects of Cymbalta include:Nausea
Headache
Dry mouth
Tiredness and fatigue
Trouble sleeping

Dizziness
Other side effects, which are less common but might be more severe, could include:Allergic reaction

How to take Cymbalta
Your pharmacist will provide instructions on how to take your Cymbalta prescription. Make sure to read your prescription label and follow the instructions. Call your doctor or pharmacy if you have any questions.
Cymbalta capsules are taken 1–2 times daily with or without food. While the typical initial dose for patients with mental illness usually ranges from 40 mg to 60 mg daily, the initial dose for neuropathic pain often starts at 60 mg.
Cymbalta is a delayed-onset medication. As a result, you may not notice any symptom improvements until after 4 weeks of consistent use.
You should not stop taking Cymbalta unless you develop serious side effects. If you decide to stop Cymbalta treatment, your doctor will help you gradually reduce your dosage to avoid withdrawal symptoms.
What to avoid while taking Cymbalta
Cymbalta has several drug interactions. Don't stop taking your medications without talking to your doctor or pharmacist. That includes other medications, supplements, and other drugs.
Some possible drug interactions with Cymbalta include:
Lisinopril
Lyrica (pregabalin)
Omeprazole
Tramadol
If you drink alcohol, talk to your doctor before starting Cymbalta treatment. When taking Cymbalta, alcohol can increase your risk for liver problems, such as liver failure.
