Can Cymbalta be taken with lexapro without developing serotonin syndrome?

I wouldn't suggest it at all. Just from personal experience, I developed a moderate case of serotonin syndrome while weening myself off Lexapro to switch to Cymbalta. Had I taken my regular dosage of Lexapro (20mg) with the 20mg of Cymbalta, I probably would have ended up in the ER.


How do you stop Wellbutrin XL and start Lexapro?

I recently switched from Cymbalta to Welbutrin. Cymbalta is similar to Lexapro. I started the transition by halving my Cymbalta dose while starting Welbutrin. This went on for a week, then I discontinued the Cymbalta and took only Welbutrin. Of course, the best answer to this question is to follow your doctor's orders.


Can you take hydrocodone and Cymbalta together and is Cymbalta addictive?

Yes and yes. You can take hydrocodone (vicodin) and cymbalta together. Also, each of them, taken alone or combined on a regular basis, cause physical addiction, so stopping either or both will result in withdrawal symptoms. WARNING/PLEASE NOTE: Just because it's okay to take vicodin and cymbalta together doesn't mean it is okay to take any and all opiates with cymbalta. For example, you can NOT take tramadol (ultram) and cymbalta together. tramadol is not an opiate its opiod like- very different. and they can be taken together at low dosage ranges under MD supervision. Its not recommended however. the top paragraph is correct cymbalta is not a controlled substance (other than being prescription) and does not carry the potential for abuse in the vast majority of people

Can you take Chantix and Cymbalta together?

According to the literature, there is no interaction between the two drugs. However, after you stop smoking, the doses of any medications you are using may need to be adjusted. Tell your doctor about all other medicines you use, especially insulin, blood thinners, or theophylline (Respid, Theobid, Theoclear, Theo-Dur or Uniphyl). Since smoking cessation causes a drop in dopamine levels, it might be necessary to adjust your anti-depressant dosage as well.Personal experience: Cymbalta 60mg and Chantix caused Serotonin Syndrome.It is advised you lowering/weening your Cymbalta by 50% prior to starting Chantix. As stated above in bold.
