The reason Cymbalta is not covered by most insurance companies is that it's not an approved drug by the CMS guidelines which the insurance companies go by.
Check this guideline before changing drugs...
Good luck...

Sometime the insur co needs the doctor to explain to them exactly why the medication is required for you. Id steer clear of med marij until you've pursued the other presriptions. Cant imagine dealing w drug sniffing dogs at the airport. Haha
