Lyrica And Cymbalta Together
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone taking these drugs together? I take lyrica for years but new doc who is helping with my ptsd prescribed cymbalta to take as well. I read research that these two together help fibro better than alone. I don’t like starting new drugs and feel anxious about it. Wondering if it is worth the try or not. Hubby will probably say not but I need help to manage my mental health and physical. Idk. Lmk what you guys think. Gentle hugs

I'm on cymbalta only. Been for years. Doesn't help anymore but my family doctor said nothing else to give me. I tried Lyrica but made me sick so stopped

I have been on cymbalta. Dr just added lyrica and had to up it quite a bit. I’m still dealing with the tiredness of it but I do see a difference.

I am on lyrica and cymbalta for years now. Significant improvement in my nerve pains and FM symptoms. It was the key to helping my chostrochondroitis.

I started on lyrica first then my Dr added cymbalta a couple years later for my spinal stenosis. I have never had a problem and still take them 9 years later.
