Dr. John Moranville answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Why?: The question is why you are stopping the cymbalta (duloxetine). 30 mg is a low dose and i would not expect any withdrawal symptoms even with abrupt withdrawal, but you should always discuss with your prescribing doc any medication changes.
