So I know officially Cymbalta goes up to 120 mg/day, but I've been told that there is no clinical benefit/efficacy after crossing 60 mg. Is this true? I can't find paper that gives evidence for this.
Do you usually dose the 60 mg, 30 mg q12h or 60 mg q24h? I have a lot of patients that have neuropathic pain as well, and our hospital seems to like to jump straight to cymbalta....but pain docs usually also stop at 60 mg for neuropathy...
Do you think cymbalta is good, or better off using SSRI + gabapentin/lyrica for MDD + Neuropathic Pain?
