CYMBALTA

[stucoo]

Hi,

I just been to see my GP and she has given me the option to try a new drug called Cymbalta (sounds like an indian curry dish to me!). I have been drug free since last September (Clomipramine - not very nice side effects), but have been taking St. Johns Wort for the last 2 weeksto get me through a bad patch. She says it is aimed at people suffering from symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Has anyone else any experince of this new drug ?

Thanks,

Stuart

Its more like Venlaflaxine/Effexor in nature rather than the ' usual SSRI's. It's just been licenced in 2005
