Hi

I don't have any experience with this medication switch.

I did want to point out, and maybe you know this, if you scroll to the bottom you will see some older posts on the subject

I hope you have a good day

I have just been reading for the co.ments and it appears it been recommended for pain I suffer from slight nerve pain but my a xiety is very bad I am worried now of changing

Maybe you should have a discussion with your MD.

You can explain what you read and get some feedback before making the switch or maybe even decide to go another route.

Some medications have varied uses. So you may take it for one thing and someone else could be prescribed for another condition.

I would ring your MD or pharmacist

Keep us posted

Hi tha ks for your reply I am so afraid of changing medication I don't think k I could cope if the side effect are bad. Are you still on the Duloxetine

[Arymretep in reply to SHEPHER]

Yes I am, but a very low dose, I did try two others before but they didn’t suit me, but these seem to be ok 👍

🙂Did you find them hard to get into your system. And how long before you felt any benefits I know we can all react differently
