I have been on savella a month now and had to go off ny cymbalta and gabapentin to switch to it. I had to slowly go off both of them and savella starts you off with a titration packet to build it up in your system. My pharmacy didnt even carry savella, they had to order it.

It does not cause weight gain. I looked into it because gabapentin caused alot of weight gain. But with savella you are not suppose to take depression meds with it because it has that in savella. Lyrica and gabapentin both cause weight gain.
