> I am only 2 weeks on Cymbalta, Lexapro mix. Tried to switch but have decided to stay on Lexapro, having sleep, anxiety issues. Can I quit Cymbalta cold Turkey after only 2 weeks? Been on lexapro 1 year.
You could, but it's not wise. Tapering is a precautionary move. If done right, you don't notice the withdrawal at all. Not tapering, on the other hand, is a bit of a crap shoot.....emphasis on the crap.
