In reply to Effexor vs. Cymbalta for TRD?, posted by jerrypharmstudent on November 16, 2009, at 16:29:57
I had a positive reaction to both. I think the Cymbalta was better in that it didn't give me the anxiety that Effexor did. Cymbalta also worked better on my depression. The normal dose for Cymbalta is 60 mg but you can go up to 120 mg so there is some room to play around with it.
Since the Cymbalta didn't help you much the first time you were on it, maybe you will need a mood stabiliser to help you. You never know what will work until you try it!
