What are pluses of one versus the other? Lyrica vs Cymbalta? Thx

Well, I guess Cymbalta is primarily used for depression and Lyrica (pregabalin) is used for nerve pain (like fibromyalgia). In my opinion I think Lyrica is stronger. It makes me alot more drowsy but for most it wares off after the first couple weeks. Cymbalta gave me weird mood swings. My primary tried cymbalta first also, then lyrica. I did get better results from Lyrica.
