Does anyone take lexapro with cymbalta or lyrica? I have tried to go off lexapro to try savella previously but I really need to be on it as it helps with my anxiety and ocd. However it doesn’t help with my fibro pain which has been severe. Can lexapro be taken with cymbalta or lyrica? I’ve tried savella and did not do well on it

      Cymbalta did not work for me, made pain and depression worse and beware getting off this stuff! Plus my blood pressure got higher while on it.

      Cymbalta and lexapro shouldn’t be taken together (therapeutic duplication) but cymbalta alone can help with fibromyalgia pain AND depression/anxiety. It’s honestly one of my favorite meds for my fibro pain but I can’t take it because it is too sedating (an issue I have with most psych meds because of co-occurring conditions).

      I'm not entirely sure as I'm just a patient but I take Lyrica and it absolutely amazed me with the reduction of pain and touch sensitivity relief. I also take elavil with it. I hope this helps and you find relief soon.
