Cymbalta use

Post by Greensteps »

Hi. I saw a mention in Nightwalkers to beware of Snri. Is Cymbalta an issue. Any experiences. Im about to go on it for neuropathic pain. 15 years with Tks off and on - mostly on now. Tks

Doesn't seem to make my RLS worse. Though what about gabapentin? It is commonly used for neuropathic pain AND it treats RLS...
Blessings,

Tks for the reply. I used gabepentin couple times once for RLS and for whatever reason made it worse. Tried it lately for pain and did same thing. Lyrica was no help and mirapex augmented.
