How does Cymbalta / Duloxetine work?
Treatment with Cymbalta is specifically for the treatment of anxiety and depression. Cymbalta is a selective serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SSNRI) for oral administration only. Although the exact mechanisms of the antidepressant central pain inhibitory & anxiolytic actions of Duloxetine in humans are unknown, these actions are believed to be related to its potentiation of serotonergic and noradrenergic activity in the CNS. Duloxetine may improve your mood, sleep, appetite, and energy level, and decrease nervousness. This treatment was developed by Eli Lilly & co after details about Cymbalta’s run-away success hit the news. Approved by the FDA in 2003, Duloxetine has since then become well known in its own right. You can find many forums online. If you need any additional information about Duloxetine, just continue reading the FAQs that follow.
