Hello all, I just started this med, this is my 3rd day on it, all I do is yawn, and get hyper at times, mainly yawn. I am so tired I can not function, feel like im in a fog all day. I also take 50mg of Serquil at night to help with sleep, along with Klopoin, topamax and a muscle relaxer. I am thinking I should just take the Duloxetine at night instead of the day? I noticed a bit of insomina but not much last night, I also woke up because I was biting my tongue which I never do. I do not like what I am feeling with the Duloxetine, I know meds take time to work, but this is crazy. Any advice help is appreciated. I have read some of the other posts and most say the take the Duloxetine at night, I am thinking of trying this tomorrow.

Sorry spelling is bad on some things
Thanks!

Hi Angel,

Are all of your Rx's from the same prescribing doctor?

If so, then a quick call for advice should be good move for hwo and when to take this combination of meds.

I would think that if you took your Duoxetine at night, then that would combat the fatigue...and your Serquil would cover any restless/insomnia issues.

It is hard though when your symptoms are fluxutating!

If you can't get a hold of your doctor, your pharmacist may also be able to answer this question.

Wishing you the best during your start up...it can be difficult in the beginning. Have a look into our Resources on the main page (1st thread) for great self-help relaxation exercises that are really effective.

Post with us anytime for anxiety support.:)

Hi

I am currently withdrawing from Duloxetine 90mg and I am currently on 30mg I decided along with my doctor to stop as I was getting to many side effects that did not seem to lesson. I took mine in the morning and did find it caused quite bad insomnia for me for which I was prescribed sleeping pills. I also used to take Seroquel and at a guess would say that it was that which is causing your fatigue? I would discuss this with your doctor.
