[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 157263, member: 1498"] Like Effexor, Cymbalta is an SSRI/SNRI combination antidepressant. Sixty mg is the highest recommended dose. It pretty much proved that suicidal ideation can be caused by antidepressants when it was trial for female incontinence and a "higher than expect" number of test subjects developed suicidal ideation. (The "expected" number of women developing suicidal ideation due to incontinence is zero.) Considering your BiPolar (BP) diagnosis, you probably shouldn't be taking it -- especially at that high a dose -- without a first line mood stabilizer. Antidepressants are not approved for the treatment of bipolar disorder. there are actually cautions against prescribing them for people with bipolar or who have ever had a manic episode. [/QUOTE]
