Ive been on duloxetine 60 for about 5 weeks and it seemed to work ( i am also on pregabalin 400). Last week was frantic at work and stupidly i forgot to take the duloxetine 2 days in a row. That night i was violently ill and delirious which at the time i put down to food poisoning ( or over-indulgence!). However since then for the past week i have gone through the symptoms of high anxiety and deep depression/tearfullness off and on. Does anyone know if it is possible that I could have either withdrawn so quickly from the AD , or whether the vomitting could have somehow got i tout of my system.
My fear is that this isnt the case and the meds just arent working. Apparently duloxetine has a very fast half life ( 12 hours) but i am not sure what this means. If i know that it is just a case of building th drug up a gin it will make the side effects a little more bearable.
can anyone help here? I feel i need a bit of solid information, as even my local criris team seems to have different views- some saying i have probably withdrawn, others that is isnt possible.
