What is Cymbalta?

Cymbalta is a brand medication that contains Duloxetine, which belongs to a class of medications called Serotonin / Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitor (SNRI). It works by increasing the amount of certain neurotransmitters that correlate with better mood and feelings of satisfaction and calmness. It is therefore used to treat depression, generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), neuropathic pain, fibromyalgia (musculoskeletal pain all over the body) and long-term muscle and bone pain.
