Using cymbalta (duloxetine) and lamotrigine for 6 months and noticed hair thinning, headaches, muscle aches and horrible nausea. is this normal and will it last?

Unusual: You seem to have unusually strong adverse reactions to these medications. Generally side effects diminish over days to weeks, not usually months. I would suggest you talk to your doctor. I wonder if something else could be going on...

Possibly related: One question: how soon after starting these drugs did the side effects start. Things like body and headaches MAY be associated both with these drugs OR the disorder(s) they treat. However, many of them go away after several weeks when it’s related to the drug. Hair thinning is typically not. Speak with your doctor about tolerability and to further assess how likely either agent is causing them.
