Today I asked my doctor to change me from Remeron to Cymbalta because I have gained weight on Remeron which I just can't lose, even with strict diet and exercise. Doc says I have to wean off the Remeron slowly, going down to 30 mg for a week, then 15 for a week, then I can finally start the Cymbalta. Anyone know how important it is to follow this schedule exactly? I am afraid to go into remission by going off the Remeron before starting Cymbalta, especially since it might take several weeks for the Cymbalta to kick in. I am also on Wellbutrin sr 200 mg 2x a day. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
