Duloxetine, sold under the brand name Cymbalta among others,[1] is a medication used to treat major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, fibromyalgia, neuropathic pain and central sensitization.[7][8] It is taken by mouth.[7]
Duloxetine is a serotonin–norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI).[9] Similarly to SSRIs and other SNRIs, the precise mechanism for its antidepressant and anxiolytic effects is not known.[7]
Common side effects include dry mouth, nausea, feeling tired, dizziness, agitation, sexual problems, and increased sweating.[7] Severe side effects include an increased risk of suicide, serotonin syndrome, mania, and liver problems.[7] Antidepressant withdrawal syndrome may occur if stopped.[7] There are concerns that use during the later part of pregnancy can harm the developing fetus.[7]
Duloxetine was approved for medical use in the United States and in the European Union in 2004.[5][6][7] It is available as a generic medication.[9] In 2021, it was the 27th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 20 million prescriptions.[10][11]
