Cymbalta - Can I drink alcohol while taking Cymbalta?

As they say, "Moderation is the Key". It's really best to abstain because everyone is different and you just don't know how it will affect you. Aside from potential liver complications some people really get whacked out if they drink with an antidepressant. Try it out on yourself and see how you do. An occasional beer or two isn't likely to cause major problems, just don't overdo it. "DULoxetine may cause liver damage, and taking it with alcohol may increase that risk. You should avoid or limit the use of alcohol while being treated with DULoxetine. Call your doctor immediately if you have fever, chills, joint pain or swelling, excessive tiredness or weakness, unusual bleeding or bruising, skin rash or itching, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, dark colored urine, or yellowing of the skin or the whites of your eyes, as these may be symptoms of liver damage."
