Who's been on Duloxetine?

[Inola]

My doctor has put me on Duloxetine 20mg, feeling spaced out, sick and shaking more than normal, has anyone been on this before and has it worked?

Yes had the same reaction as you and put on weight. Was only taking it for 6 weeks it improved my walking but I hated the side effects neese.

Hi there I was put on this a few months back I am 60mg one tablet, as each individual is different we can react to different meds , for me I reacted to sertraline and had to come off , could you ring 111 for some advice now and then speak to your surgery at 8 in the morning, take care I know it can be very frightening having a reaction x

Hi .

I've tried these recently for three days they made me so sick and feeling rough that I've had to stop them .

Half the side effects I already suffer from so I've decided there not for me x

I tried these,awful side effects,no sleep,dizzy,I stopped very slowly,if you have been on a while do not stop suddenly,I opened them and took some out,not very accurate but it worked.

Unfortunately, didn't suit me at all had a really bad continuous headache and felt sick and had no improvement in pain or sleep so stopped them.x

I'm on 60mg and over time these effects subside and you do not notice them. I been on this over a year and I am now fine after having the same side effects as you, can not remember exactly but I think it took aboput 2 months.

Hi, I was put on these last year, when I asked GP for more pain relief, I only lasted three or four days and had to stop taking them. I was having really bad nightmares, hallucinations, and I became very angry and aggressive, and made me perspire really badly. I was told they affect everyone differently. Hope they work for you, and give you the relief you need. Paperman
