Duloxetine was first approved by the FDA in 2004 and sold under the brand names Cymbalta® and others.
Duloxetine is FDA approved to treat generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and major depressive disorder (MDD). It is also indicated for certain other conditions related to nerve pain including diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain, fibromyalgia, and chronic musculoskeletal pain. Treatment for nerve pain is not available through our platform. Those seeking care for nerve pain should consider seeing a medical provider outside our platform to evaluate potential options for treatment.
Duloxetine is an SNRI and works by discouraging nerves in the brain (neurons) from absorbing two substances, serotonin and norepinephrine, thereby increasing their levels in the brain. This can have beneficial effects on psychiatric disorders, such as anxiety and depression.

Duloxetine 101
Serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) zero in on mood-affecting chemicals in the brain and help to regulate their levels to improve your symptoms. Nice, right?
Your brain naturally produces chemicals that make you feel good, like serotonin and norepinephrine. Duloxetine keeps neurons from reabsorbing these chemicals so that you have more of them available in your brain. Long story short? This can help relieve symptoms of anxiety and depression.
