After hearing the horror stories of people withdrawing off this drug, I think I want to stop before I get too hooked on it.
I've taken three 60mg tablets over three days. Can I simply stop without the need for tapering given its only been three days? Will I experience many side effects coming off cold turkey?
Hard to say; people can certainly suffer withdrawal effects after only a few weeks. The thing with Cymbalta, though, is that if you DO suffer symptoms, you can take (say) 30mg and you will feel better fairly quickly, then keep reducing the dose.
Some people can come off Cymbalta without too much difficulty - you might be one. Have to confess after just three days I'd be tempted to just stop.
