Can Cymbalta Be The Cause For Muscle Jerks In Left Pointer Finger And Thumb Occasionally ?
Hi I have been on cymbalta 30 mg for a couple of months now. Also, I started metformin at that same time. I have been recently having muscle jerks in my left pointer finger and thumb, it comes and goes. Could it be the cymbalta? My Dr. did say I could switch to celexa and stop the cymbalta, if I decided to do that route would I just stop the cymbalta tonight and start the celexa tonight?
Thanks!
Thanks!

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
The muscular jerk is not due to the Cymbalta but it could be because of the reason for what you are taking this drug, and this will come around, nothing to worry and no need to take any other medicine for this take care and have nice day.
