Don'tcha love it when bureaucrats play doctor?

Cymbalta is either available generically or on the verge (I haven't tracked it that closely). If so, they may have wanted him to write the scrip generically; or if not, wait until the generic version is on pharmacy shelves.

...or a case of the left hand not knowing the where the right hand has its head up...
