Does excitalopram or cymbalta (duloxetine) in anyway cause hypothyroidism? and can i stop taking cymbalta (duloxetine) now that i've been diagnosed with hypothyroidism???

Cymbalta (duloxetine): Cymbalta (duloxetine) does not directly affect thyroid function, but some side-effects may resemble low thyroid function states. Anecdotal studies reported abnormal thyroid function in less than 1%.
