Shocked

Did your doctor tell you to take BOTH Cymbalta and Savella?

That is a MAJOR drug interaction and not safe:

I am surprised the Pharmacy let you have them!

Not sure why he would RX two SNRI's.

Usually they add lyrica or gabapentin as those drugs have synergy with TCA's and SNRI's. So what it dose is make the cymbalta work better or make it work at a lower dose.
