Does taking Cymbalta and Prozac together cause hallucination?
human
Hi, i have been on adderall for 3-4 years, about 2-3 years of that i was also taking celexa and wellbutrin without problems. I was off any antidepressants for a couple years. in december i started taking cymbalta for pain. about a month into it i developed a dermotilomania type issue which i was picking my face to get the worms out , at one point for 8 hours in one day. I took tweezers, needles, cuticle remover, and a scalpel. Clearly I was completely out of my mind.. my question/concern is that i went to a psychiatrist and she put me on a low dose of prozac, i asked about an interaction between the two, she said no so i took it for 2 days and researched it myself and it says that there is a high interaction and could cause hallucinations.

hi greetings...it's deciding to know about your condition... as you have rightly mentioned combination of duloxetine that is symbols and prosaic as you have rightly mentioned combination of duloxetine that is symbols and prozac might cause serotonin syndromemight cause serotonin syndrome...and one feature of serotonin syndrome is having hallucinations... other features of serotonin syndrome as follows:-Confusion, hallucination, seizure, extreme changes in blood pressure, increased heart rate, fever, excessive sweating, shivering or shaking, blurred vision, muscle spasm or stiffness, tremor, incoordination, stomach cramp, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea...so it's best to consult your psychiatrist and under his supervision taper one of the two drugs as soon as possible to avoid worsening of the about syndrome...go for a morning walk daily exercise 2 to 3 times for week which also helps you to relieve from your symptoms partially...all the best for your future endeavours...Hope I solved your query and feel free to ask any further...Thank you...
