I have found Cymbalta to be very helpful over the years for neuropathy; however, it must be used properly.
You must first take 30mg once daily for the first seven days, and only then start taking it at a dose of 60mg once daily thereafter.
Do not judge your results until you have been on the 60mg daily dose for a full three to four weeks.
Overall, I have found it gave me anywhere from an average 50% to 100% reduction in pain (primarily small fiber), as well as a nice mood boost.
I may restart it myself again after being off for 16 months, and am also debating whether to try the generic version too (and trying to get feedback).
Best of luck with it!
