> Have been reducing Cymbalta from 30mg capsules to 5mg currently. Now am out of "capsules", but have plenty of contents. I have been told they are enteric coated. Need to know what to mix them in to continue weaning off this drug without experiencing more severe W/D symptoms than I already am. The electrical shocks, etc. Thanks. Please respond, am out of capsules. Phillipa

I hate to say it, because it sounds callous, but since I believe you don't have access to a milligram scale.. I sense that you may be prolonging your withdrawal symptoms at 5mg, which is 1/12 or less than 10% of a typical daily dose. At that level, I would drop the whole thing completely, experience the effects for a few days and have your body readjust, rather than raking the coals. I know its a balance between "cold turkey" and sensibility but that level is near placebo and it would seem to just agonize the days longer that the drug is in your system. I'm sorry Cymbalta has not worked for you.

best wishes
