Sertraline Or Duloxetine?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I've been on sertraline for 3 years without any good result for my fibromyalgia I have been diagnosed with depression as well. My psychiatrist told me that I don't have to stop this medication. The neurologist on the other hand thinks that duloxetine works better for fibro symptoms. What are your experiences from both drugs? I think that I have to give a try on cymbalta, because Im quite exhausted and I feel helpless at this point.

I am on duloxetine for depression and fibro. I was put on it for my fibro first, and it has helped, has helped my depression too.

Finding getting off sertraline slowly,is having some adverse effects. Maybe I need it along with cymbalta? Drugs are so hard to adjust with fibro and depression. I will persevere somehow!👍
