I’m going to meet a clinician on Tuesday about hyperbolic tapering. Just curious if anyone has gone from the capsule to liquid Cymbalta/Duloxi? I’ve heard it’s not the same because the capsules are slow release and you can’t get that in liquid. I don’t want to risk having mood swings for just changing the way I take my meds.
I’m praying this is the beginning of the end of this horrible medicine that has give me and my family so much grief. Now I finally understand why I’ve never felt deep joy or even compassion towards my children. I’ve never felt myself. +/- 18 years of this Cymbalta rollercoaster and if it means another few years to finally be set free, so be it.

Hi Ale, I'm in UK. Tried NHS prescribed pharmacy prepared duloxetine liquid when I was really struggling with withdrawal symptoms on beads as each capsule had different numbers. Sadly, the liquid made things worse and has destroyed my stomach. I'm now on a ppi and back on beads. I don't know if this helps you, it's just my one experience.

@Sunflower yes this helps. I’m so sorry you’re struggling. My intuition was that the change yo liquid would probably not go well. I’ll let you know what the clinician says in case you’re curious. What is a ppi?
