Talk to your doctor : In general it is best to discuss medication changes with your doctor. Some patients experience withdrawal when stopping Cymbalta (duloxetine). These symptoms are flu-like. It is best to take it slow and taper the dose down over the course of a month. A few people require longer than a month. If another antidepressant is introduced, then the time required for weaning may be reduced. Talk to your doctor.
