A member asked:
I have been on cymbalta and abilify (aripiprazole) for 3 weeks is it normal for me to still be very drowsy?

Drowsiness: The drowsiness seen with anti-depressants (Cymbalta) and major tranquillizers (Abilify) can persist for several months. You should consult your psychiatrist for dose adjustments in their two medications.

Side effects: Although drowsiness can be a side effect of both Cymbalta and Abilify, (aripiprazole) please discuss with prescribing doctor lowering the dose and/or adjusting the time you take each to minimize sedation. It's not acceptable for you to be feeling drowsy from these meds. I hope this helps. All the best.
